RAID controller that looks like a graphics card? Such a product was released by Graid Technology.
The device is called the Supreme Raid SR-1010, and it not only looks like a video card, it is part of it. Of course, there is no talk of any graphics processing, but the fact is that the controller is based on quite a regular GPU. More specifically, GA106, well known for GeForce RTX 3050 and RTX 3060 graphics cards.
The GPU is great for the tasks that are assigned to RAID controllers, which is why Graid is based on the GPU for the second generation of its solutions.
In this case, we are talking about 19 million IOPS in random read tasks (4K) with optimal Linux settings. According to the manufacturer, the same solution based on software will provide 3.5 million IOPS.
The bandwidth of the novelty is 110 GB / s, RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10 arrays are supported. PCIe 4.0 support can also be noted.
Deliveries of the device will begin in May, but there are no prices yet.
