Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for writing files to tape storage. A set of files to be written to the tape storage are identified and, for each file, metadata associated with the file indicating identifiers of users associated with the file is retrieved. For each file, a predicted frequency metric, specifying a predicted frequency of access of the file, is determined based on the identifiers of users associated with the file specified in the associated metadata. The files are sorted to generate a ranked set of files in which each file is ranked relative to the other files in the set of files based on their corresponding predicted frequency metric. The ranked set of files is written to the tape storage in descending order of predicted frequency metric such that files having relatively larger predicted frequency metrics are written relatively closer to a starting boundary of a partition of the tape storage.
