Leander Yu Co-Founder & CEO Santa Clara, CA Tom Paquette SVP & General Manager, Americas and EMEA Bonita Springs, FL Dr. Henry Chang CTO Taiwan, Taipei David Tseng Chief Architect Taiwan, Taipei Our dedicated team of experts bring decades of experience in the SDS, ASIC and storage industries

A Decade of Change in the Storage Market • Storage systems are becoming increasingly software-defined • Commodity hardware prevents vendor lock-in • SSDs are replacing HDD as the storage medium of choice for the enterprise as they deliver lower TCO with improved scalability and flexibility • Gartner analysts predict enterprise SSDs will be 32% of overall HDD/SSD capacity shipped by 2026 (vs ~20% share in 2021) 5 ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc.

The Challenge 6 ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc. • Flash storage performance is evolving too fast to be fully utilized by existing storage architectures • Software-based RAID competes with other applications for CPU power, slowing the whole system down • Advances in NVMe technology are moving so fast that ASIC-based RAID can’t deliver the full performance capability of the SSDs • With these performance numbers, there is little to no ROI on investment in NVMe SSDs Traditional RAID is a bottleneck

SupremeRAID™ Use Cases ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc. 21

AI Training 22 ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc. “AI Training requires reading large amounts of data, a procedure that can take more than 12 hours with traditional solutions. Combining SupremeRAID™ and NFS over RDMA reduced the procedure to 2 hours—a huge productivity improvement.” SupremeRAID™ Use Case — AI Director of a well-known Health Research Department Institution

4K Video Surveillance 23 ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc. “To capture a car race with 4k video quality from different cameras requires more than 10GB/s write throughput. GRAID Technology Inc. is the only RAID solution to deliver this kind of performance with RAID5 data protection.” — IT Director of a Global Media Company SupremeRAID™ Use Case

Automobile, Aviation & Drone 24 ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc. “When recording large amounts of high- definition video in a limited environment, a RAID1 solution might be able to keep up with the speed but it’s not cost efficient. SupremeRAID™ delivers RAID5/6 that matches the performance of RAID1, which pumps up the available space from 50% to 80+%. Not only is it good for cost savings but also makes a lot of things possible in this limited environment.” — Solution Architect of a North American-based Aviation Company SupremeRAID™ Use Case

SAN/NAS Storage Systems 25 ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc. “While most of the all-flash array vendors in the market only deliver up to 1.5M IOPS, GRAID Technology Inc. makes 19M IOPS possible with a single SupremeRAID™ card.” — R&D Director of a SAN Storage Company SupremeRAID™ Use Case

Local Databases 26 ©2022 GRAID Technology Inc. “Current hardware RAID is obviously not the solution for local databases due to its latency and performance limitation for NVMe SSDs. SupremeRAID™ provides unbeatable performance and latency for databases to realize the full benefits of using NVMe SSDs.” — Solution Architect of a Tier-one IT Company SupremeRAID™ Use Case
