Modern datacenter infrastructure must support data-hungry applications and feed data to these applications at ever-increasing speeds. NVM Express® (NVMe®) SSDs, which use the PCI Express® (PCIe®) physical interface, have become the frontrunner for raw storage device performance, both in terms of IO’s per second (IOPS) and throughput, typically measured in Megabytes or Gigabytes per second (GB/s).

GPUs are known for providing excellent acceleration to video graphics and related activities, in part, because these activities require many repetitive mathematical calculations to be performed and these GPUs are designed specifically to accomplish this purpose. RAID processing also involves extensive and repetitive mathematical calculations, especially for RAID5 and RAID6, so GPU acceleration is a natural fit.

This report examines the advantages of GPU RAID and provides an analysis of test results from two competing NVMe RAID solutions.

At WAIC 2026, Graid Technology will join Superhi to showcase how protected local NVMe storage can help accelerate LLM inference through KV Cache offloading. With GPU-accelerated data protection, GPUDirect Storage support, and no extra RAID hardware required, SupremeRAID™ AE helps reduce TTFT and improve inference response stability.
Graid Technology is excited to join the AI Powered Data Centre Conference 2026 as a Silver Partner in Mumbai, India. As AI workloads continue to drive new demands on data centre infrastructure, Graid will showcase how SupremeRAID™ GPU-accelerated NVMe RAID helps reduce storage bottlenecks, improve data protection, and enable higher performance for AI, HPC, and next-generation data centres.
Every NVMe array pays a hidden storage tax — either 12–18% of line rate lost to a hardware RAID controller, or 18–28% of host CPU consumed by software RAID. With enterprise NVMe pricing up ~257% since Q2 2025, that tax now hits a much bigger check. SupremeRAID™ eliminates both halves by running RAID I/O on an NVIDIA GPU: full line-rate throughput, CPU cores returned to your applications, enterprise-grade protection on one card.
