RAID, redundant array of independent disks, uses redundancy to provide a more robust disk drive array capable of operation even with the loss of a drive. RAID 1 replicates data with a 50% overhead. RAID 5 and 6 are more common in larger arrays with less overhead as more drives are added to the mix but with a tradeoff in performance.
Mark Anthony, Product Line Manager at Microchip Technology, talks about the company's SmartRAID 4300 Series, which is designed to accelerate the operation of RAID arrays implemented build on NVMe drives.

The Importance of Chipscale Packaging in Electronics
AI workloads and other advanced computing applications continue to expand, pressuring the development community with the dual challenges of performance and manufacturability. Traditional SoCs are approaching their limits in terms of size, yield, and cost, and one solution lies in chiplet-based architectures. In this episode, we talk to Larry Zu, CEO at Sarcina Technology, and how the company is deploying interconnect to minimize signal crosstalk and enhance signal integrity.

The Evolving Cloud Infrastructure
We can simulate everything very exactly, but when it comes to that analog interface between the system and reality, you must be very careful because sometimes things don't behave in the analog realm the way they're predicted to. In this episode, we talk to Dermot O'Shea, CEO of Taoglas, about the state of the cloud and IoT and the challenges in developing products to operate well within it.
