A computing system is operable to generate a first plurality of lines of coding blocks that includes a first plurality of data blocks and a first plurality of parity blocks. A first set of segments of a first segment group that collectively include the first plurality of lines of coding blocks are generated, and the first set of segments of the first segment group are stored via a first plurality of computing devices of a first storage cluster of the computing system. A second plurality of lines of coding blocks that includes a second plurality of data blocks and a second plurality of parity blocks are generated. A second set of segments of a second segment group that collectively include the second plurality of lines of coding blocks are generated. The second set of segments of the second segment group are stored via a second plurality of computing devices of a second storage cluster of the computing system.
