C2000-NVME-Controller | RapidFlex NVMe™-oF Controllers - C2000
RapidFlex Family of Fabric Bridge Devices
Western Digital RapidFlex is a low-power, high-performance NVMe-oF fabric bridge device that enables more efficient use of NVMe-based storage. NVMe over Fabrics, or NVMe-oF allows external NVMe SSDs to be shared at comparable latency as if they were inside the server. In addition to better efficiency, this disaggregation separates storage from the server refresh cycle. Available either as an ASIC or PCIe controller card this new version adds initiator capability that allows datacenters to deploy much lower power initiator cards in their servers. This new version also doubles performance with an additional 100 GbE port matched to 16 lanes of Gen 4 PCIe.
