A computer-readable record medium which contains a volume management program is provided. The volume management program forms a plurality of storage devices into a plurality of layers of volume, and re-arranges a location of a layer where a data block is stored according to its access degree, thereby providing a volume management method having much lower power consumption of the storage devices.
