1. A method for execution by a computing device to adjust efficiency of storing data in a storage network, the method comprises:
processing a data segment of the data based on a storage approach to produce a processed data segment, wherein the storage approach is based on an estimated update frequency of the data segment;
error encoding the processed data segment to produce a set of encoded data slices, wherein a decode threshold number of encoded data slices is needed to recover the processed data segment; and
storing the set of encoded data slices in memory of the storage network in accordance with the storage approach.
