VROC™ Is Back — And This Time, It Has a Roadmap

Back by popular demand. For two years, VROC customers have been asking what's next. Today, Graid Technology has the answer. Graid Technology announces active development, Intel® Xeon® 6 support, and a no-cost upgrade path for existing customers.

VROC™ by Graid Technology is here — and everything you loved about Intel® VROC is still here too. The same proven CPU-integrated RAID foundation thousands of enterprises trust. The same bootable RAID 0/1/5/10, no HBA required, no PCIe slot consumed. Up to 45% better performance, 69% lower BOM cost, and 49% better power efficiency versus legacy HBA RAID.

Now, for the first time in years, it also has an active development roadmap.

Graid Technology — creator of SupremeRAID™ and global steward of Intel® VROC — officially launched VROC™ by Graid Technology at Computex Taipei, June 2–5, 2026. The 24-month roadmap includes Intel® Xeon® 6 platform support with no-cost upgrades for existing Intel® VROC customers, hardware key elimination via UEFI licensing, and SupremeRAID™ coexistence — meaning CPU-based RAID and GPU-accelerated RAID can now run on the same platform. Tier 1 OEM partners have endorsed the roadmap and contributed to its development.

VROC by Graid Technology is built on the same proven foundation that enterprise customers have trusted for years," said Leander Yu, CEO of Graid Technology. "Our commitment is straightforward - preserve that continuity while delivering the active development, OEM collaboration, and next-generation Intel® Xeon® platform support that the market has been asking for."

As Jacek Wysoczynski, VP of the VROC Business Unit at Graid Technology, put it: "For two years, VROC customers have been asking what's next. Under Graid Technology, VROC has a real roadmap, an owner who is actively investing in it, and OEM partners who helped shape where it's going."

VROC™ by Graid Technology becomes available through OEM and channel partners in Q3 2026.

Your VROC investment is preserved — and finally moving forward again.

Don't miss our joint speaker session with Supermicro, where we'll walk through scaling approaches across every tier, from single-server to rack-scale to monolithic deployments, and show how dense NVMe GPU platforms paired with SupremeRAID™ turn SSDs into a high-performance, protected KV cache tier. If storage is becoming your AI infrastructure bottleneck, this is the session to catch. See you at FMS 2026!
Graid Technology has achieved an industry-first benchmark: 100 million IOPS on a protected RAID 5 volume for GPU-initiated I/O, built from 32 KIOXIA XD8 NVMe SSDs. The result shows that resilient NVMe storage can now operate at the scale that current and future AI deployments require, which is especially significant for environments that require both extreme performance and enterprise-class data protection. In benchmark testing with a WholeGraph training workload, [...]
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.
