The NAND flash memory market is dynamic, but it’s also sometimes predictable. Suppliers tend to roll out identical NAND flash chips and then scale them to smaller geometries. And NAND chip prices rise ...

Micron and Intel are officially splitting up, dumping their joint NAND flash manufacturing activities, and fighting over custody of the the family dog, Moore. The first thing Micron has done with its ...

Not to be outdone by Toshiba/SanDisk’s introduction of their 48-layer BiCS 3D NAND earlier today, Intel/Micron recently held a webinar announcing that they’ve begun shipping their 3D NAND product as ...

NAND flash memory is a key enabler in today’s systems, but it’s a difficult business. NAND suppliers require deep pockets and strong technology to survive in the competitive landscape. And going ...

There is a growing demand for higher-density NAND flash across the global storage market. For the time being, this demand has been satisfied through many developments, not only in the capabilities of ...

The NAND flash technology that Toshiba introduced in 1989, making thumb drives, SSDs and your smartphone’s memory possible, has finally reached a development dead end. Toshiba and other major ...

Samsung has announced the mass production of the first 3D NAND chips -- and with them, the beginning of a manufacturing initiative that will push solid-state cost-per-GB ever closer to magnetic ...

There's every reason to consider solid-state drives (SSDs) as the primary storage medium for PCs and laptops. The benefit of SSDs over traditional spinning drives is immense. No moving parts enables ...

Samsung has begun mass producing 3D vertical NAND (V-NAND) flash memory after 10 years of research and development. In a blog post Tuesday, the South Korean firm said that the V-NAND will be used ...
