Hello,

not a complete review, I just note that there is a duplicate space in
the Subject. You might want to fix for the next patch round.

Best regards

How come "smi" is used for a company with this name?
Why is it not something like SMTC? There's probably some history here

"Controllers are marketed under the “SMI” brand,
  enterprise-grade SSDs under the "Shannon Systems" brand.
