A method, apparatus, and computer program product for implementing affinity based allocation for storage implementations employing deduplicated data stores is disclosed. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a backup manager determines if information associating a data source with a first data target of a plurality of data targets has been established. The first data target is a deduplication data store and the information associating the data source with the first data target indicates an increased likelihood of at least some information stored on the data source is already being stored on the first data target prior to performing a backup. If information associating the data source with the first data target has been established, the backup manager stores a set of data on the data target.
