About xiRAID Classic 4.1.0
xiRAID Classic 4.1.0 is high-performance software RAID developed specifically for NVMe storage devices and new types of SAN networks. xiRAID Classic 4.1.0 technologies use high potential of Flash devices (NVMe, SAS, SATA) to create a fast fault-tolerant RAID available as a local block device with opportunity of export via network by using auxiliary software.
xiRAID Classic 4.1.0 is a Linux kernel module and a management utility, which is built and configured for the most popular distributions (see the xiRAID Classic 4.1.0 System Requirements document). The software is installed on servers with slots for Flash memory devices or with connected JBOFs. xiRAID Classic 4.1.0 enables you to combine drives into high-performance fault-tolerant RAIDs.
