The DapuStor J5101, an enterprise NVMe M.2 boot drive, built with the PCIe Gen 4 interface and a compact M.2 form factor, delivers fast, reliable server boot with low power consumption and flexible capacity options. These capabilities improve operational efficiency and lower total cost of ownership (TCO) in virtualization, AI, HPC, and cloud environments.

As AI infrastructure and data centers scale, server configurations are becoming denser and more complex, with higher costs per node. M.2 boot drives have become a critical component in server reliability and cluster operating costs, with evolving requirements in three key areas:

DapuStor, a leading manufacturer of enterprise SSD products showcased at FMS2026: Future of Memory and Storage, announcing its highest-capacity 512 TB E2 SSD, liquid-cooled EDSFF designs and more. The company demonstrated how flash storage is evolving to support greater data density, performance and efficiency at scale.

New Innovations for AI Infrastructure
512 TB E2 R6060 SSD: Doubling the previous 245 TB capacity and enabling 1 PB with just two drives, the SSD is designed for scale-out storage and AI training clusters, with performance demonstrated through a test video.

As AI technology evolves at breakneck speed, the industry is witnessing an unprecedented explosion of data. The bottleneck in AI infrastructure is shifting—no longer solely about compute power, but about how data is stored, accessed, and scaled. The critical challenge now lies in managing ever-growing volumes of warm and hot data with higher density, lower power consumption, and optimized total cost of ownership (TCO). Traditional expansion strategies are hitting limits in space, power consumption, and cost efficiency, prompting a new wave of infrastructure transformation—ushering in the era of enterprise-grade QLC SSDs.

As one of the Global Tier-1 Leaders in ultra-capacity enterprise QLC SSDs, DapuStor has launched its second-generation QLC solution this year: the PCIe Gen 5 R6060 SSD. With a maximum capacity of up to 245 TB and 122 TB models already deployed by end customers, the drive is purpose-built and ideally suited for AI-Grade Data Lakes, vector databases, and large-scale storage scenarios. Entering this new phase, DapuStor brings to market a more mature QLC technology that delivers a compelling balance of performance, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness for the AI era.

DapuStor proudly announces the launch of its ultra-high capacity J5060 QLC SSD, delivering an unprecedented 122.88 TB of capacity—twice that of its predecessor, the 61 TB J5060. This milestone redefines what's possible in high-density flash storage.

Massive Capacity, Minimal Footprint
For personal users, the J5060 122 TB SSD can store up to 10,000 90-minute 4K movies, all in a device that fits in the palm of your hand—a perfect combination of capacity and portability. For enterprise deployments, the benefits are even greater. Replacing 24 TB HDDs with the J5060 can reduce system footprint and complexity by up to 5x, significantly lowering equipment count and saving valuable data center space.

As AI accelerates data expansion, enterprises face increasing challenges in managing large volumes of data effectively. Tiered storage solutions have emerged as the preferred approach for balancing performance and costs. Solid State Drives (SSDs), with their fast read and write speeds, low latency and high power efficiency, are becoming the dominant storage selection for data centers and AI servers. Among SSD techniques, QLC SSDs offer unique advantages in costs and storage density, making them particularly suited for read-intensive AI applications. Therefore, high-capacity SSDs, such as 32 TB and 64 TB models, are gaining traction as a new storage solution in the market.

Read-Intensive Applications: Mainstream Enterprise SSD Use Cases
According to the latest research from FI (Forward Insight), up to 91% of current PCIe SSDs deployments are used in applications with DWPD of less than 1, and the share is expected to reach 99% by 2028. this shift underscores the increasing prevalence of read-intensive applications and data centers, a space where QLC SSDs excel.

DapuStor Corporation, a pioneer in high-performance data storage solutions, announced today that it is expanding its collaboration with Marvell to deliver breakthrough Flexible Data Placement (FDP) technology optimized for Quad-Level Cell (QLC) and Triple-Level Cell (TLC) Solid-State Drives (SSDs). This collaboration aims to revolutionize the storage industry by addressing the inherent challenges of QLC SSDs, enhancing their performance, endurance, and capacity, thereby providing a robust and cost-effective solution for data centers, cloud computing, and high-performance computing environments.

Unlocking the Potential of QLC SSDs with FDP Technology
QLC SSDs are renowned for their ability to store four bits of data per memory cell, offering significant capacity advantages and a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) compared to other SSD types. Despite these benefits, QLC SSDs face challenges such as lower endurance and slower write speeds. The innovative FDP technology supported in the Marvell Bravera SC5 SSD controller with firmware level solution developed by DapuStor directly addresses these issues.
