Our Technology Stack

Designed from the Ground Up for Data Density and Efficiency

A Different Kind of Problem

In 2017, we set out to build a better way to store large volumes of data. At the time, we were testing configurations using off the shelf products, but no matter how we built it, we kept hitting the same limits, too much power draw, too much heat, and too little usable density.

Reimagining Storage from the Ground Up

Led by Novodisq Founder Graham Gaylard, our team looked at how storage infrastructure works at every level, and designed a new architecture from the ground up.

Starting from a Blank Sheet

To solve these problems, we stepped back and started again. Working outside the constraints of conventional systems, we developed a new hardware architecture focused on extreme density, low power, and modular scale.

The Novodisq Architecture is Purpose Built for Density, Efficiency, and Control

Custom Software, Smarter Storage

Existing drives couldn’t handle the configurations we were designing, so we built our own. This level of control is essential for large scale deployments and edge use cases where reliability, automation, and flexibility matter.

Quiet, Cool,
and Efficient

Typical high-density systems generate heat, need mechanical cooling, and draw large amounts of power. Novoblade does the opposite. Each blade draws as little as 10W idle, with full systems running up to 95% more efficiently than comparable storage platforms.

Modular and Built
to Scale

Most systems are built to fit a fixed model. We designed ours to scale. Every product we design is modular, so you can configure deployments to match your capacity, performance, and power needs, and expand as storage and compute requirements grow.

Massive Capacity. Minimal Footprint.

Novodisq is engineered for one thing, storing massive amounts of data in the smallest, quietest, and most energy-efficient form possible.

Extreme Storage Density

Fit up to 11.5PB in just 2U of rack space, making our systems ideal for data centres where every unit of space counts.

95% Lower Power Use

Use a fraction of the energy required by traditional NAS systems, and without the need for mechanical cooling.

Compute and Control

Built-in FPGA and AI compute with custom control software gives you full orchestration at the edge or at scale.

Modular and Scalable

Start small or go big with our modular architecture that can adapt to your growth, without rethinking your whole setup.
