How maxRAID Works
maxRAID revolutionizes storage with its advanced Host FTL (Flash Translation Layer) architecture. This architecture optimizes how data is written and read at the host level, bypassing reliance solely on SSD controllers. This approach enables more efficient data management, including sophisticated garbage collection, real-time data compression, and sequential data handling. The result? Enhanced SSD performance, extended drive lifespan, reduced write amplification, and increased overall storage capacity.
By intelligently managing data flow before it reaches the SSD, Host FTL transforms random writes into perfectly aligned linear writes, boosting drive endurance, speeding up performance, and maximizing storage efficiency. maxRAID unlocks the full potential of SSDs.
