This opens opportunity for bigger capacity solid state drives aboard PCs and other equipments.
Intel and Micron have carried that forward with 3D NAND.
This poses a major challenge for the memory industry.
One of the most significant aspects of this breakthrough is in the foundational memory cell itself.
This can enable gum stick-sized SSDs with 3.5TB of storage and standard 2.5-inch SSDs with greater than 10TB.
Because capacity is achieved by stacking cells vertically, individual cell dimensions can be considerably larger.
