By using an NVRAM, write operations are completed as soon as data is written in the NVRAM, and it is possible to immediately start processing the next write request. The I/O duration of over 10 ms that was necessary for write operations can be shortened to several us]. The difference in write time becomes more significant as more writing operations are executed. Furthermore, write data becomes duplexed in a different node for protection.
Regular RAM size is 128 MB, but the NV series use a GB-size NVRAM; therefore, a large volume of data can be easily written.

TOE stands for TCP/IP Offload Engine, and a chip on a network card processes TCP/IP, which used to be processed by the CPU, to reduce loads on the CPU and therefore to create a faster and more stable operation environment. The hardware reliably supports the CPU.
