The Consumer Electronics Show is a great place to pick up on technology trends; this year, everyone was talking about mobile devices and streaming content from the cloud. We’ve been fielding questions about the cloud for a while from people who assume it will mean a smaller memory market as smartphones and tablets scale back [...]
Micron Technology and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. Collaborate to Make Revolutionary HMC Technology Generally Available You’ve probably heard that Micron and Samsung are collaborating to create the Hybrid Memory Cube (HMC) Consortium, with the goal of defining an industry-adoptable HMC interface, thus facilitating HMC’s integration into a wide variety of technologies. I sat down with [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
As promised, the video below is a live demo of the phenomenal performance you can get from our P320h PCIe SSD. It’s a simple and straightforward IOMeter measurement, but we wanted to show you how much of a leap our card makes over current solutions—the random reads output of the P320h is more than twice [...]
If you’re an SSD fan who’s been following our blog for a while, you know that we posted a from-the-lab teaser video of a prototype PCIe SSD some time ago. Our design team has been hard at work on an ideal solution, and I’m happy to tell you that today we have production product to show you.
We set up this simple demo of a C400 and stock hard drive running the same programs in identical laptops.
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.
