Content
The apparatus includes a write request receiver module 1302 that receives a storage request from the requesting device 1326, where the storage request includes a request to store a data segment in the storage device 150. The data segment includes a series of repeated, identical characters or character strings. Typically, the series of repeated, identical characters signify that the data segment is empty. This is especially true when the series of repeated, identical characters are ones or zeros. The apparatus includes a data segment token storage module 1304 that stores a data segment token in the storage device 150. The data segment token includes at least a data segment identifier and a data segment length. The data segment token is substantially free of the actual data from the data segment.
