- FADU Moves File Operations Into SSD Firmware
FADU unveiled its File-Semantic SSD (FS-SSD) at the 2026 OCP Global Summit, moving path lookup, access checks, and file-to-flash mapping into the drive while carrying NFSv3 operations in standard NVMe commands. In FADU's preliminary vendor test, a Gen6 FC6161 drive in a PCIe 5.0 host maintained about 460,000 remote file operations per second as the server was reduced from what FADU labels as 16 cores to one. The company expects PCIe 6.0 Gen6-host results by Q1 2027. The current software lacks features including ACLs, and FADU has not submitted a file-semantic command set to NVM Express or OCP Storage.
Tom’s Hardware · 🔥 0 - Kioxia's faster GP SSD tops 20M random-read IOPS with third-gen XL-FLASH
Kioxia has announced a faster edition of its GP-series SSD that exceeds 20 million random-read IOPS on 512-byte blocks, roughly double the ~10 million IOPS of the GP1 unveiled in August 2026. The drive uses third-generation XL-FLASH, which Kioxia says delivers three times the read speed and about 150% higher write speed; the company frames memory-class flash as a challenger to DRAM in AI infrastructure. Kioxia also exhibited LD4 QLC drives in 15.36 TB and 30.72 TB capacities, but did not release speed or durability figures, and it has not disclosed the upgraded GP model's endurance rating or confirmed its PCIe 6.0 interface.
