System integrators
Telecommunications and network

hardware suppliers

Since 2006, we’ve been building automated test solutions for the data storage and networking industry. Quarch began out of a desire to address the unreliable, tedious and expensive nature of manual physical layer testing methods for data storage systems. Now, we have a range of solutions to make device testing reliable, repeatable and fast. Our products are used worldwide, by businesses of all sizes - and are built right here in our warehouse in Scotland. Quarch automated hot-plug tools are now considered a mandatory testing component of the NVMe storage standard in the USA. We support businesses of all sizes - from the smallest startups to the blue-chip leaders. Get in touch to find out how we can help you qualify, measure and analyze the performance of your storage and networking products.

🚀 Inspiring the Next Generation of Highland Tech!
Stuart Boon, from the Software Engineering team at Quarch Technology, recently joined the Digital Technology & Computing Fair at Kingussie High School . Stuart brought along our power analysis products, breakers and a selection of drives for live demos, showing S2 pupils exactly what we build right here in the 🏔️

After a brief presentation on Quarch, the kids played "Yank the Drive" — pulling a drive from an imaginary server while it wrote photos. Pull too soon and photos corrupt; pull too late and you waste electricity (bad for the environment and your wallet). Teams timed attempts and refined their guesses to find the sweet spot, demonstrating how iterative testing and informed decisions lead to the right answer.

After winning the game, they built a Python program to test the same problem — unscrambling the code on paper before running it on a computer. Five increasingly complex iterations were no match for them, and the bright minds solved every one with ease.

It was a brilliant opportunity to show that world-class software engineering happens right on their doorstep in Aviemore and hopefully inspire some young minds - perfect timing as these students prepare for their S3 elective choices!

A huge thanks to the staff and students for the warm welcome. The future of Highland tech is looking bright!

The "Gen6 test kit gap" risks stalling validation cycles. If your latest product testing relies on a full host-to-device link at Gen6, you’ve likely hit the lack of available test equipment.

Validation shouldn't be the bottleneck for Gen6 integration, so we've been working on ways to get you testing quickly while the rest of the industry catches up.

Our new AIC-to-MCIO adapter was built specifically for early testing when a native Gen6 MCIO host is unavailable. This allows you to quickly build the required test scenario.

Testing options:
🔷 AON ENCLOSURE - Connect to the Quarch Aon Gen6 drive enclosure for combined hot-plug, fault injection, and power/sideband analysis. All the key areas you need to test on early SSD designs.
🔷 SIMPLE JBOF - Suitable for any MCIO-cabled device, such as the SerialCables Hydra JBOF. Hook drives quickly into any standard host PC
🔷 HOST POWER TRIGGERING - Knowing exactly when the host power rails come up can be key to timing issues. External triggers for all 3 PCIe rails allow you to sync with external test kit such as a protocol analyser or Quarch PPM
🔷 SIDEBAND PROBING - Lower-speed sideband signals often cause enumeration problems. Debug points for PERST, WAKE, and SMBUS make probing straightforward.

Hop over to the Quarch website if you want to learn more. Evaluation units are available now!
