  • Disk management
    Patent number: 8782143
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-program products store file segments by receiving a first file segment, and storing the first file segment in a first memory area having a highest ranking. The first memory area is reassigned as a memory area having a next highest ranking when a second file segment is received and the first memory area has reached a maximum capacity. The second file segment is stored in another memory that is reassigned as the memory area having the highest ranking.
