The new 512TB drive doubles the capacity of its predecessor, allowing for one petabyte of storage from just two units. Beyond raw capacity, DapuStor introduced the R6 E1.S liquid-cooled SSD, which integrates cold-plate technology into a compact form factor to support GPUDirect Storage workloads. The company also expanded its portfolio with E3.L and E1.L configurations, alongside a 64TB QLC model tailored for capacity-optimized AI storage tiers.

Industry recognition followed the product showcase, as a joint venture between DapuStor and UBIX was named a finalist for the FMS 2026 Device Engineering Award. This system, which utilizes R6100 PCIe 5.0 TLC drives and the UbiPower 18000 platform, previously posted top-tier results in the MLPerf Storage v2.0 benchmark. During the event, DapuStor leadership and technical experts from Xiaohongshu collaborated on a deep dive into QLC optimization, addressing complex engineering hurdles such as Flexible Data Placement and QoS consistency in high-density environments.
