RAISE? (Redundant Array of Independent Silicon Elements) protects the data on your drive similar to having a RAID setup. Intelligent Block Management & Wear Leveling automatically distributes data evenly across the entire SSD. Intelligent Read Disturb Management spreads the active read/write across the flash components eliminating data corruption caused by constant use. Intelligent "Recycling" for advanced free space management gradually re-writes data across the SSD over time to ensure data never gets corrupted. Best-in-Class ECC Protection for longest data retention and drive life. To achieve the higher bandwidth potential of the SATA 6Gb/s bus standard, the OWC Aura Pro 6G SSDs utilize Tier-1 Synchronous NAND instead of commonly utilized Asynchronous NAND.
