Abstract
A method, article of manufacture, and apparatus for scaling an index on a solid state drive in a deduplicated storage system is discussed. The index may be scaled as index hash buckets approach capacity, or as new solid state drives are added to the system. The hash buckets may be mapped to HDD hash buckets, which are stored on a hard drive.
