2x Samsung SM961 MZVPW256HEGL NVMe (RAID 0)

The RAID 0 array consisting of two Samsung SM961 MZVPW256HEGL drives is a high-performance storage solution with a capacity of 512 GB. Both drives make use of the modern NVMe interface.

RAID 0 is an array of two or more drives. It is designed to increase performance by processing data in a multi-threaded fashion. This is achieved by distributing the contents of files roughly equally among all disks in the set, the more, the merrier.
