Today, due to the large amount of data duplication caused by the increase in user data, various deduplication studies have been conducted. However, research on personal storage is relatively poor. Personal storage, unlike high-performance computers, needs to perform deduplication while reducing CPU and memory resource usage. In this paper, we propose an adaptive algorithm that selectively applies fixed size chunking (FSC) and whole file chunking (WFH) according to the file type and size in order to maintain the deduplication rate and reduce the load in personal storage. We propose an algorithm for minimization. The experimental results show that the proposed file system has more than 1.3 times slower at first write operation but less than 3 times reducing in memory usage compare to LessFS and it is 2.5 times faster at rewrite operation.
