A computing device includes an interface configured to interface and communicate with a dispersed storage network (DSN), a memory that stores operational instructions, and processing circuitry operably coupled to the interface and to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to execute the operational instructions to perform various operations and functions. The computing device detects at least one available memory device within a storage unit (SU). The computing device identifies storage capacities of each of the memory devices within the SU and identifies a DSN address range associated with the SU. The computing device maps the DSN address range to each of the memory devices within the SU based on the storage capacities to generate a memory mapping of the memory devices within the SU. The computing device then facilitates redistribution of some EDS from a first memory device to the at least one available memory device within the SU.
