GRAID Supercharges RAID bis zu 19 Millionen IOPS, 110 GBps

GRAID Technology has announced the SupremeRAID SR-1010, which it claims is the “world’s fastest NVMe and NVMeoF RAID card for PCIe Gen 4.” Ein PCIe 4.0 evolution of the SupremeRAID SR-1000, the new SupremeRAID SR-1010 upgrades the on-board GPU RAID accelerator from the Nvidia T1000 (Turing) to an Nvidia RTX A2000 (Ampere) GPU. The improved hardware leverages the PCIe 4.0 protocol to achieve RAID speeds in excess of anything you’ve seen before, with sequential reads rated at 110 GBps and sequential write performance of 22 GBps. Read and write IOPS are set at 19M and 1.5M, beziehungsweise.

The change in GPU and PCIe interface means the upgraded SupremeRAID SR-1010 offers a 19% performance boost in read and an 83% write performance increase compared to the model it replaces. The GRAID SupremeRAID SR-1010 offers support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, und RAID 10 arrays with support for a maximum of four groups, and is capable of managing up to 32 NVMe SSDs under Linux and Windows Server 2019 und 2022 (though performance there takes a big haircut). Availability is pegged for May 1st, but GRAID didn’t provide a sticker price for its GPU-powered RAID solution.
