Abstract
A method of operation of a storage system includes: establishing a virtual storage device 1 including allocating portions of a storage media 1, a storage media 2, a storage media N, or a combination thereof including writing data blocks to the virtual storage device 1; determining a pinning status for the data blocks; pinning the data blocks to a logical block address (LBA) range until the pinning status indicates an unpinning of the data blocks; and relocating the data blocks to the storage media 1, the storage media 2, the storage media N, or the combination thereof within the virtual storage device 1 when the pinning status indicates unpinned.
