Abstract

Apparatus, systems, and methods may operate to classify storage locations in a storage medium according to at least three response time grades, to classify data to be stored in the storage locations according to at least three access frequency grades, and to migrate the data between the storage locations according to a predicted access frequency assigned to preemptive allocations of some of the storage locations, based on the response time grade and the access frequency grade associated with the data prior to migration. Other apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
