Shouldn't this be something that the storage vendors implement, hopefully in a transparent manner? That would also mean it would be a cross-platform solution.
If part of the SW can be designed to take advantage of specific HW acceleration, then it would make sense that the HW manufacturer would include it as part of the offering. I'm not sure if this is the case, but give that this supports 4** chipsets and above, it appears to be.

Ideally it would be implemented by the OS. MS did have the ReadyBoost feature and should have continued development so it could also use SSDs to boost mechanical drives instead of just flash drives and memory cards. They don't seem to have any interest in continuing development though so it's basically the same as it was when first released with Vista.
I wouldn’t mind using this for my server but the software didn’t work with my dynamic raid. Also. Don’t know if I could have trusted it with important files. But maybe AMD’s own solution will be better.
I bet this is related to the custom storage stacks and super SSDs in the XSX/PS5. There's nothing even close to that on PC for a sane price, much less something the majority of the ayer base will use, and thats going to be a problem for PC ports.
I really don't think this has anything to do with console storage. AMD's not going to be bringing the decompression offload functionality to their retail CPUs anytime soon, and that's the only part of the console storage stack they have contributed to.
Maybe not, but a cache heirarchy (on systems with some spare RAM or SSD swap space) could partially compensate for the storage bottleneck on PC. There are still folks who run expensive rigs with their games storied on spinners.
Never rile the ayer base , they are vociferous in their ayers, and will make deny you any access to further ayers. StoreMI was an attraction .. could it be used internal ssD + external usb HDD ??
I think licensing cost and that the limitation with 256GB ssd with enormous (due to competition with their own enterprise solution).. where SSD have really grown into TB range in recent years might be the primary motivations behind this decision.
And i guess AMD might even roll it out to its enterprise customers if the software is successful(and stable enough) in consumer market.
In 2013 they had a partnership with sandisk, and selling the software with a 32g sandisk ssd. I used the software then, on a work PC, where anything I put in it I could not take out except to discard. The SSD cache sped up one of my daily tasks by about 20x. Unfortunately, it wore out the sandisk ssd every 3 months, at which time the ssd went read only, and I would have to sync write events, which took 1.5 to 4 days. I could still use the computer while it synced, but disk was quite slow. I would only consider using this technology with an slc ssd, or an xpoint disk.
To begin with, the benefits of a SaaS marketing strategy are obvious, primarily the savings in software. SaaS can be further said to be a business model for software development that is completely accessible through a web browser and customers purchase it by subscription. If you are interested in such models, then you can find more details on the website https://finmodelslab.com/templates/financial-model... which provides similar services. We present to your attention software as a service business financial model. It is precisely due to the very low cost of this product that makes it such a popular and ideal solution if you have a need to develop software that is associated with a significant user load. In conclusion, I would like to wish all business owners prosperity and sound sleep.

StoreMi was a purely software solution. You could install it on older chipsets, but a license purchase was required.linamking9 - Thursday, April 16, 2020 - link

Excuse my ignorance, but isn't this basically Windows Storage Spaces?LiKenun - Monday, April 13, 2020 - link
That’s what Linux’s upcoming bcachefs would do. Windows for the average joe is unlikely to get these features.WaltC - Monday, April 6, 2020 - link
