By now, you’ve probably heard about phase change memory or PCM. PCM is an innovative new memory technology that blends the best attributes of EEPROM, NOR, NAND, and DRAM to deliver unprecedented features in one memory device. But how do PCM’s unique features translate to user experience? The video below shows how PCM’s nonvolatility, high [...]
The enterprise SSD market used to be seen as a single tier in the storage market—a cohesive, expensive grouping above other storage options. That’s no longer true. The enterprise SSD market is also segmenting, largely because SSDs deliver several key features—low latency, reliability, and low power, to name a few—that can make dramatic differences in [...]
When we first talk to customers about phase change memory (PCM), we’re often asked two questions: how is PCM different, and why would I want to use it in my device? PCM is a radically different memory technology that records information via the shifting state (phase change) of a unique material. PCM is able to [...]
Like any innovative tech company, we’re always searching for ways to make our products better. We’ve engineered some big read performance gains that will make a noticeable difference for our C400 and m4 SSDs. We’re bundling the improvements into our latest firmware release, which is available now for all customers. Like any firmware release, we [...]
I had a chance to sit down with Glen Hawk—our VP of NAND solutions—at this year’s Flash Memory Summit to talk about the conference and his keynote there. He had a lot to share about the growth of NAND, it’s place in a cloud-computing world, and where the technology is headed. His keynote also featured [...]
I’m at the Flash Memory Summit in Santa Clara, California where final preparations are underway on the tradeshow floor. We are a long-time participant in the Summit and are really excited for the opportunity to speak and meet with our partners and peers in this industry.
Servers and data storage centers need a memory solution that can satisfy their rigorous performance demands while delivering the potential for significant improvements in energy efficiency. Check out these comparison charts to see how today’s leading memory technologies stack up in terms of bandwidth per watt:
Dean Klein, Micron’s Vice President of Memory System Development, discusses the new RealSSD C400 drive and how SSDs will grow in 2011 with the influx of ultra-mobile notebooks. Dean also discusses how the leading-edge performance and capacities of the C400 are poised to serve this market.
Micron has a long history of providing networking customers with outstanding technical expertise, dedicated customer support, and some of the best low-latency memory solutions available. I’m proud that it has led to a technical collaboration with TPACK, now a subsidiary of AppliedMicro, that pairs our low-latency RLDRAM memory with their next-generation TPX5000 100G packet processor [...]
