SSD Lifespan: maxRAID-5 vs Traditional RAID-5
maxRAID maximizes SSD lifespan by reducing unnecessary writes and wear. Designed for endurance, it delivers peak performance and protects your investment. Enjoy fast, reliable, and cost-effective storage built to last.
Extend SSD lifespan over 3.8x and achieve lasting savings with maxRAID’s Intelligent RAID Technology.
How maxRAID Works
maxRAID revolutionizes storage with its advanced Host FTL (Flash Translation Layer) architecture, which 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 wear levelling, 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 sequential patterns, boosting drive endurance, speeding up performance, and maximizing storage efficiency. Integrated into software-based RAID solutions like maxRAID, it unlocks the full potential of SSDs.
