As quad-level cell (QLC) flash technology matures and becomes more widely available, organizations are finding that the performance is good enough for many tier 1 and tier 2 workloads - and the price, typically more affordable than triple-level cell (TLC) media, is advantageous. Customers who are eager to modernize their IT infrastructure from HDD to flash don't want to pay a premium for submillisecond performance for business-critical workloads. In addition, organizations are increasingly looking for easy ways to connect to the cloud, creating a dynamic hybrid cloud infrastructure that can address their changing IT needs.
