With the two types of V-NAND, Samsung aims to solidify its leadership in the high-capacity, high-performance NAND flash market.“Kicking off the successful mass production of V9 NAND just four months after the TLC version allows us to offer a full lineup of advanced SSD solutions that address the needs for the AI era,” said Hur Sung-hoi, executive vice president and head of Flash Product & Technology at Samsung.“As the enterprise SSD market shows rapid growth with stronger demand for AI applications, we will continue solidifying our leadership in the segment through our QLC and TLC V-NAND.”INDUSTRY SHIFT FROM TLC TO QLCCompetition for NAND-based storage devices is fierce as AI chips focus on inference, which requires large-capacity storage devices to store and process images and videos.
The output ramp-up follows Samsung’s mass production in April of triple-level cell (TLC) 9th-generation V-NAND, another type of NAND chip used to make solid-state drives (SSDs) – devices that store massive data in flash memory.
Samsung Electronics Co., the world’s largest memory chipmaker, said on Thursday it has begun mass production of a 286-layer high-capacity NAND memory chip to lead the fast-growing storage device market amid the artificial intelligence boom.
