Recently, zoning technique has been widely applied to disksto increase their capacities. Under the technique, an interestingfeature of a disk is that there are a number of various bandwidths onit. Herein, a novel data layout scheme called cluster-pairing onefficiently exploiting this feature for continuous media(CM) servers is proposed. We first applied track-pairingmethod between a pair of homogeneous disks, and then partitioned eachdisk into a same number of clusters to facilitate the retrieval ofregion-based data placement. The proposed method can take theadvantages of track-pairing and region-based data placement schemesto fully utilize the various bandwidths from zoned-disks andmeanwhile reduce the seek time overhead. According to the simulationresults, the disk throughput after applying our approach can bepromoted by 35% to 65% than that of the traditionaldata striping strategies, 10% to 30% than that ofregion-based data placement method, and about 10% than that oftrack-pairing scheme. And the wasted storage space is less than1% which is negligible in terms of the improvement of the diskthroughput.
