A method and an apparatus for tiered storage processing of data, and a storage device. The method includes: splitting the migration unit into multiple migration subunits when a migration unit of low-tier disks is migrated to high-tier disks, and detecting a data access frequency of each migration subunit respectively; migrating the migration subunit to the low-tier disk when detecting that the data access frequency of the migration subunit is lower than a set threshold; and combining the multiple migration subunits into the migration unit when detecting that the multiple migration subunits are all migrated to the lower-tier disk. The present invention improves usage of storage media, and controls metadata storage resource consumption effectively.
A method for a storage device processing data, wherein the storage device comprises a first storage disk set and a second storage disk set, wherein the first storage disk set includes a plurality of storage disks with high performance, and wherein the second storage disk set includes a plurality of storage disks with low performance, the method comprising:
