Using SSD/HDD hybrid arrays, the Adaptec MaxIQ™ SSD Cache Performance Kit allows I/O intensive data centers and cloud computing environments to convert industry-standard servers into cost-effective, high-performance, scale-out application storage appliances.

Ideal for web, file, and database servers, MaxIQ combines Intel®-powered SSD cache with MaxIQ SSD Caching Software.  This application-agnostic caching does not require changes to storage architectures, application software or operating systems.

Up to 5X faster than HDD-only solutions
MaxIQ Caching Software introduces a patent-pending Learned-Path Algorithm that identifies frequently-read (“hot”) data, and optimizes “reads” by copying this data directly into an SSD cache pool for faster retrieval in future requests. 

Reduce capital & operating costs by up to 50%
MaxIQ reduces capital expenses by increasing IOPS with less hardware — thereby significantly cutting energy and maintenance costs.

Pair the MaxIQ SSD Cache Performance Kit with any Adaptec Series 5Z, Series 5, or Series 2 Unified Serial® (SATA/SAS) storage controller for a cost-effective, scalable hybrid solution that can deliver the highest IOPS per dollar, at the lowest dollars per gigabyte.
