  • Storage Systems Using Write Off-Loading
    Publication number: 20090249001
    Abstract: Improved storage systems which use write off-loading are described. When a request to store some data in a particular storage location is received, if the particular storage location is unavailable, the data is stored in an alternative location. In an embodiment, the particular storage location may be unavailable because it is powered down or because it is overloaded. The data stored in the alternative location may be subsequently recovered and written to the particular storage location once it becomes available.
