  1. The AI memory super-cycle has a shadow story.

    2D NAND — the planar flash inside automotive ECUs, PLCs, switches, and medical devices — just spiked 2–3× as Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix exited. Macronix moved customers to monthly contracts. Winbond booked through 2027.

  3. The AI memory super-cycle has a shadow story.
    While headlines track HBM allocation and DDR5 contract resets, 2D NAND prices just spiked 2–3× in the corner of the market that powers automotive ECUs, factory PLCs, network switches, and medical devices.
    What happened: Samsung announced MLC NAND end-of-life with final shipments in June 2026. Micron, SK hynix, and Kioxia capped legacy output. TrendForce projects worldwide MLC capacity dropping ~42% YoY in 2026.
    What's filling the vacuum: Macronix Q1 2026 revenue +71% YoY, gross margin 40.8%, NAND revenue +382% YoY. Macronix moved customers from quarterly to monthly pricing. Winbond approved a record NT$42.1B 2026 capex and says capacity is booked through 2027.

  13. #RAM and #flashmemory #prices have surged due to an #AIdriven #shortage, impacting #SSD and #memory #costs. While #GPU prices are stabilising, building a new PC or upgrading to #DDR5 RAM is currently #expensive. The shortage is challenging to resolve quickly, as increasing manufacturing capacity carries risks of oversupply and price drops. arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/1 #tech #media #news

  14. "The small #flashmemory device, which #Fudan University began exploring in 2015, is said to outperform today’s fastest volatile memory (such as SRAM) by a factor of more than 100,000. While SRAM and DRAM offer speed, they are volatile and expensive. On the other hand, flash storage, though persistent, has lagged behind in speed. The researchers’ new approach seeks to bridge that gap, potentially redefining memory and computing architecture."

  15. "Because #PoX is non‑volatile, it retains data with no standby power, a critical property for next‑generation edge AI and battery‑constrained systems. Combining ultra‑low energy with #picosecond write speeds could remove the long‑standing memory bottleneck in AI inference and training hardware, where data shuttling, not arithmetic, now dominates power budgets.
    Industrial and strategic implications:
    #Flashmemory remains a cornerstone of global #semiconductorstrategy thanks to its cost and scalability. #Fudan’s advance, reviewers say, offers a “completely original mechanism” that may disrupt that landscape. "

  19. For that niche of people (like me) who have mirrorless/DSLR cameras, GoPros, or drones, Samsung has some new pro-branded SD and MicroSD cards. 130MBps write speed, good for 4K video. 200MBps read speed should be helpful for video transfer. $73 for 512GB MicroSD, $93 for 512GB SD. Curious: Samsung touts their lower power usage.
