1. A method comprises: sending, by a computing device of a dispersed storage network (DSN) to a set of storage units of the DSN, a set of write requests regarding a set of encoded data slices, wherein a data segment of data is dispersed storage error encoded to produce the set of encoded data slices, wherein each write request of the set of write requests includes a write set information table that includes a listing of which storage unit of the set of storage units is being sent which encoded data slice of the set of encoded data slices for storage therein; receiving, by at least some of the storage units of the set of storage units, write requests of the set of write requests; interpreting, by one of the storage units of the at least some of the storage units, the write set information table to determine that a particular encoded data slice assigned to a particular storage unit should be stored by a different storage unit; and facilitating, by the one of the storage units, storing of the particular encoded data slice in the different storage unit.
