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 [...]
Get the details about what it is, how it works, and why it’s advantageous in this whiteboard overview.
We recently sat down with Glen Hawk, our VP of NAND Solutions, to talk about the company’s direction and vision for NAND Flash memory.
Micron today announced that our 25nm NAND is being used in a new all-in-one storage and media solution from Hitachi-LG Data Storage (HLDS), called Hybrid Drive. The innovations Micron has made in NAND flash memory continue to spark new and compelling end-product designs from our customers – the Hybrid Drive being one of them.
Analyst firm iSuppli recently issued a report forecasting a major surge in shipments of NAND flash memory in the coming months as a result of the explosion in the tablet device market.
NAND Flash represents the most advanced semiconductor technology in the world, and is approaching the atomic level where storage cells are separated by a countable number of electrons. Taken at face value, one might assume that these advances are creating a palpable opportunity for designers to capitalize on increased market demands for higher density applications in consumer electronic devices, computing platforms, and industrial systems. However, there are a few hurdles that we need to overcome before customers can seize this burgeoning opportunity.
