Western Digital has lifted the kimono on the first-ever 512 gigabit 64-layer NAND chip claiming it is a stride forward in the new 3D NAND technology.
WD executive vice president of memory technology, Dr. Siva Sivaram, said the tech was doubling the density from its first 64-layer architecture in July 2016.
“This is a great addition to our rapidly broadening 3D NAND technology portfolio. It positions us well to continue addressing the increasing demand for storage due to rapid data growth across a wide range of customer retail, mobile and data centre applications," he said.
