Abstract
A device implementing a system for object placement includes at least one processor configured to identify an object stored on two of a plurality of storage devices, and to determine a pairing value for each pair of the plurality of storage devices, the pairing value corresponding to a number of stored objects common to the pair. The at least one processor is further configured to select, based on the determined pairing values, two storage devices having a lowest pairing value relative to the determined pairing values, and to move the object to each of the two selected storage devices.
