Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and device for storing data. The method comprises: generating a data block corresponding to data to be stored; aligning the data block to a boundary of a tracking unit of a predefined size for validating the data; and storing the aligned data block in at least one storage unit of a storage space, the at least one storage unit having an identical size. The method according to embodiments of the present disclosure can align the data block so as to minimize the waste of storage space and avoid the situation where the rest data cannot be validated due to disappearance of partial data.
