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 ...

Samsung announced that it has begun mass producing the industry's first three-dimensional (3D) Vertical NAND (V-NAND) flash memory, which breaks through the current scaling limit for existing NAND ...

The Blue 3D SSD is the first TLC NAND drive whose sustained write performance nearly matches that of MLC NAND drives. Along with its Sandisk 3D Extreme sibling, by far the best bang for your buck in a ...

3D NAND suppliers are accelerating their efforts to move to the next technology nodes in a race against growing competition, but all of these vendors are facing an assortment of new business, ...

In 2014, 3D NAND flash was introduced to the industry with 24 layers, and it co-existed with 2D NAND flash until 2017. 3D NAND flash gradually came to dominate the market with its high-density storage ...

It's been clear for several years that three-dimensional NAND die stacking, in which chip layers are oriented vertically as opposed to horizontal planar structures was the way forward for ...

Why it matters: China has been trying to bolster its semiconductor industry for years in an effort to become self-sufficient and more competitive on the global market. Development has been slow on the ...

Flash memory has very quickly risen from being an obscure memory type to perhaps becoming the dominant memory type for many devices, including music players, cell phones, tablets and now increasingly ...

More layers mean more storage per chip, and that means bigger volume sizes for your SSD. Micron unveiled the industry's first 232-layer 3D NAND memory chip on Thursday. Yhe business expects to ramp up ...
