There were several papers and works in progress at OSDI 99 that dealt closely to this topic. It was a very interesting conference from this perspective.
There was: "Automatic I/O Hint Generation Through Speculative Execution, Fay Chang, Garth A. Gibson, Carnegie Mellon University"
Then there was: Virtual Log Based File Systems for a Programmable Disk Randolph Y. Wang, University of California, Berkeley; Thomas E. Anderson, University of Washington, Seattle; David A. Patterson, University of California, Berkeley
Then there was "Enriching the File System-Storage System Interface" work-in-progress (Drew Roselli, Jeanna Neefe Matthews, Tom Anderson (drew@cs.berkeley.edu) which talked about informing the storage subsystem with info hints as for file block lifetime, etc... I think this might have been what you were thinking of?
