Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to method and device for data read/write. The method comprises: in response to receiving a first read/write request for a first target area, determining whether there is a second read/write request under execution in conflict with the first read/write request, a second target area for the second read/write request at least partially overlapping with the first target area, and at least one of the first read/write request and the second read/write request being a write request; and in response to determining there being the second read/write request in conflict, suspending the first read/write request while maintaining a sub-area of the first target area in an unlocked state, the sub-area not overlapping with the second target area.
