Abstract
The system includes a data synchronization module and a heat data module. The data synchronization module is configured to communicate with a first storage volume and a second storage volume to provide a backup for the first storage volume by synchronizing information from the first storage volume to the second storage volume. The information includes at least one of data chunks, heat map data, and first metadata relating to the first storage volume. The heat data module is coupled to the second storage volume to read the first metadata and the heat map data and adjust a location of at least one of the data chunks in the second storage volume based on the heat map data.
