GPUDirect Storage RAID0 support

Accelerated Computing GPU-Accelerated Libraries

Hi there! Does GPUDirect Storage support hardware RAID0 or somehow it supports software RAID0 ? I think my motherboard is very laggy for its real hardware RAID0 support

Push question because I’m searching for an answer to this.

software RAID0 of NVMe drives with xfs and ext4 in ordered mode is supported.

performance of RAID0 of nvme devices depends on the PCIe topology of the devices in the system w.r.t GPU. Ideally you want to have devices under same CPU for better performance.

please look at configuration guide on assigning the drives to RAID0 volume and testing with nearest GPU.
