SNDK• SanDisk and Kioxia unveil 9th-generation QLC 3D NAND
- SanDisk and Kioxia unveiled 9th-generation 2Tb QLC 3D NAND aimed at AI-driven infrastructure, extending their joint flash memory development roadmap.
- Technology uses the partners’ CMOS directly Bonded to Array architecture, allowing separate CMOS and memory-array production before bonding.
- New 6-plane design lifts write and read bandwidth versus the prior 8th-generation 2Tb QLC, improving power efficiency.
- NAND interface speed reaches 4.8 Gb/s, a 33% increase from the previous generation.
