The new 3D Xpoint memory architecture is designed to address critical shortcomings of both NAND flash and DDR4. Let's talk about how this new memory could address concerns in both markets.

However, SanDisk (SNDK), in collaboration with Hewlett-Packard (HPQ), has developed a storage-class memory technology. SanDisk claims that this technology can compete with 3D XPoint.

Intel and Micron said that they will keep jointly manufacturing 3D XPoint memory technology at the Intel-Micron Flash Technologies (IMFT) factory in Lehi, Utah.

Semiconductor manufacturers Intel and Micron are working on a new type of non-volatile computer memory that they say is up to 1000 times faster and more durable than NAND flash. 3D XPoint (pronounced ...

In a comment to Blocks & Files, analyst Jim Handly said Intel’s 3D XPoint is very unprofitable to produce. He estimated that Intel lost $2 billion on 3D XPoint in 2017 and 2018, and $1.5 billion in ...

Micron jointly developed the 3D Xpoint memory with Intel Corp starting in 2012. The company currently has a supply agreement with Intel that runs through the end of this year. Intel has said it plans ...

Selling the business would have made no sense, since the underlying technology was essentially dead. If Gelsinger has his way, 3D XPoint will mark Intel's last foray into the memory chip markets.

Micron Technology Inc said on Thursday it planned to take full control of IM Flash Technologies joint venture with Intel Corp . The deal terms include payment of about $1.5 billion in cash, as well as ...

He estimated that Intel lost $2 billion on 3D XPoint in 2017 and 2018, and $1.5 billion in 2019. That’s unsurprising, however, as 3D XPoint memory production is nowhere near as mature as 3D NAND.

These layers can be stacked on top of each other to produce storage devices that are 10 times denser than conventional SSDs or RAM, and yet allow every memory cell to be accessed individually. 3D ...
