Find out how RAIDIX ERA's parallelism works and why you can go with RAID 5 instead of RAID 10 — without performance losses.

Software RAID to Substitute Hardware Controller

Using RAIDIX ERA instead traditional hardware controller you obtain additional storage performance and simplify system maintenance.

• Much faster than hardware RAID controller
• Independent from hardware upgrades and modifications
• Simple migration between storage systems
• Frees one PCIe slot (for PCIe NVMe drives)
• Unlimited product lifetime
• Immune to physical damage
We have designed advanced software technology to leverage productive work with NVMe that enables to utilize up to 97% of hardware performance capabilities. Such results comes from high I/O handling parallelization and lockless datapath.
