This paper explains why Pure Storage offers a superior option to hybrid flash arrays for capacity workloads. It highlights how QLC-powered FlashArray//C provides enterprise-grade reliability, reduced latency, and simplified management compared to HDD-based or hybrid systems. Pure’s DirectFlash technology improves endurance, efficiency, and data reduction, enabling lower TCO and smaller footprint. The document positions all-flash as now cost-effective for secondary workloads such as backup, test/dev, and file services, while eliminating the operational complexity of hybrid tiering.
