Storage presented to the host may have a RAID on the back-end. For NVMe 
SSDs, the 1.3 specification provided a field to advertise chunk 
boundaries: Identify Namespace NOIOB. We need to span the entire stripe 
to utilize the total available capacity, otherwise we'll repeatedly 
write to only a subset, increasing write amplification factor. The new 
PPL approach is designed to access the full capacity.

Thanks
Pawel
