  1. Samsung Electronics Completes Development of 900-Layer Ultra-High Stacking 3D NAND Flash Prototype, Report Says

    Samsung Electronics has successfully developed a prototype for a 900-layer 3D NAND flash memory, a significant advancement in memory technology. This prototype was achieved by stacking two 450-layer 3D NAND chips using Cell-on-Row (COR) technology, and its functionality has been confirmed. This development is a key step towards higher density and more efficient storage solutions. AI

    IMPACT Enables denser and more efficient storage, crucial for AI model training and deployment.

  2. Nvidia's memory costs soar 485%, latest AI systems now cost $7.8 million to build — memory now comprises 25% of the total cost, Rubin GPUs a mere $50,000 apiece

    Nvidia's next-generation AI systems, particularly those utilizing the Vera Rubin VR200 NVL72 configuration, are projected to cost hyperscalers approximately $7.8 million each. A significant driver of this cost increase is the memory components, which now constitute about 25% of the total system price, amounting to roughly $2 million per unit. This surge in memory expense is attributed to a threefold increase in LPDDR5X memory capacity and the addition of substantial 3D NAND storage, alongside onboard HBM4 memory on the Rubin GPUs. AI
