Storage vendors and their customers may soon be entering an era of economical #3DNAND. As the term suggests, 3D NAND enables chipmakers to stack memory cells into vertical layers, allowing them to pack more capacity into smaller chips. #Samsung 's take on it is called #VNAND, and soon the company's fourth-generation version of the flash capacity-enhancing technology is hitting the market in larger quantities. Today, the South Korean electronics giant announce that the company had begun volume production of its 64-layer, 256Gb V-NAND chips. Appearing in limited qualities in Samsung SSDs since January, its new 64-layer V-NAND chip are set to show up in flash storage solutions for servers and other enterprise systems, along with PCs and mobile devices. By the end of the year, Samsung expects 64-layer V-NAND to account for more than half of its NAND flash production, the company said.
