Micron is planning to launch a line of solid state drives based on three-dimensional (3D) quadruple-level cell (QLC) flash memory, similar to what Toshiba announced last June. While initial products will take aim at the enterprise sector, and in particular datacenters that rely on 7,200 RPM hard drives, according to The Register, it’s only a matter of […]

SanDisk’s NAND flash lineup may have set a record Wednesday after the company claimed to have the world’s smallest 128-gigabit (16GB) memory chip. The 19 nanometer, three-bit-per-cell storage has a footprint of about 170mm square (0.26in square), or less than that of a penny. It’s also relatively quick for its capacity and size at 144Mbps […]
Apple is rumored to be in talks to buy an Israeli startup called Anobit in deal said to be valued up to $500 million. The fabless semiconductor company has developed a flash memory controller technology that makes cheap non-volatile memory work as well as more expensive memory. The company claims to be able to make […]
Intel and Micron today have made the first 128-gigabit (16GB) NAND flash chip. The 20-nanometer part is twice as dense as before even as it keeps up a quick 333 megatransfers per second. With the option of stacking as many as eight chips on top of each other, it may be the first design to […]
Samsung announced a ton of new chip and memory technology. The headliner was its Exynos 4212. The dual-core chip is primarily a clock speed boost and jumps from 1.2GHz to 1.5GHz, helped in part by a new 32 nanometer process. While already seen in the Galaxy S II LTE, it’s now known to have a […]
Toshiba late Wednesday revealed its first example of 19 nanometer NAND flash memory in a step that could lead to very high capacity smartphone and tablet storage. The two-bit-per-cell, 8GB per chip technology is the smallest ever and could double the capacity of mobile devices even before most have been using the previous upgrade. The […]
Samsung and Seagate on Tuesday lived up to rumors by striking a deal for their storage businesses. Under the terms, Samsung will fold its hard drive business into Seagate’s while Seagate will in turn give Samsung drives for computers and other devices. Samsung will bring its flash memory into play and feed not just Seagate’s […]
