Abstract

A method and apparatus for dynamically distributing data to an appropriate storage device based on the significance of the data. In one embodiment the method determines the significance of a data file using the format of the data file. The method also includes identifying a storage device and memory location of the storage device to write the data. In a software implementation, a computer system employs a filter driver and/or a device driver to identify and store data files. In another embodiment, a storage controller includes a state machine that initiates and executes firmware to determine the data file format and also the storage device location.
