Method, device and computer program product for storage management
Storage management techniques involve determining a set of association degrees associated with a set of storage disks, the set of storage disks forming a set of Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks (RAIDs), and an association degree of the set of association degrees indicating a coupling degree of a pair of storage disks in the set of storage disks, the coupling degree being determined based on a number of RAIDs associated with the pair of storage disks. Such techniques further involve determining a first number of pairs of storage disks, wherein the coupling degree of each pair of storage disks is less than a predetermined coupling threshold; and in response to determining that a ratio of the first number to a total number of pairs of storage disks of the set of storage disks is greater than a predetermined ratio threshold, reorganizing at least one RAID in the set of RAIDs.
