Toshiba and Micron released the latest memory chips
Toshiba has announced that it will soon release a series of the world's fastest memory cards SD, that will offer a write speed of up to 240 MB / sec. Today, the Japanese company said that its new memory cards Exceria Pro will be focused on at professional users such as photographers and will allow you to record high-resolution photo is very multi-threaded. Speed card reader will be up to 260 MB / s, they will be produced in the tank for 16 and 32 GB. expected that the market for high-speed cards will appear in October of this year, and will be sold in Japan and has a 64-gigabyte card, which will cost about $ 250 (25,000 yen), while the low-end cards will cost from 15,000 yen.
The company said that now the memory card market, especially in the consumer sector is largely standardized and consumers simply do not know the difference between manufacturers. so the release of creative solutions with a very high capacity and high speed - this is one of the ways to stand out from the mass producers. At Toshiba said that the latest models are compatible with the specifications of card UHS-II, which can transmit data at speeds up to 312 MB / sec.
The corresponding specifications were approved in January 2011. Today, another memory chip maker - American Micron Technology, announced that began shipping test samples chip NAND-memory created on 16-nanometer process, and having a capacity of up to 128 gigabits. The company said that the new chips - a response to customer requests for higher capacity chips in a more compact form factor. 16-nm MLC NAND-chips - is "the most advanced from a technological point of view of products," which are designed for use in areas where high capacity, but the space is very limited.
This, in particular, smart phones, tablets or recorders. In addition, the data in the future chips will be placed in the consumer SSDD-drives, and external storage systems and other products.
