This article illustrates how technology continues to push its boundaries as the 48-layers NAND and 3D NAND chips which aims to reduce the cost per bit and to increase maximum chip capacity. With such technologies, companies such as Toshiba, will be able to compete better with Samsung who is leading in the SSD (Solid State Drive) race and thus produce larger and cheaper SSDs.
Competition between large electronics producers has caused many numerous breakthrough in the industry, from floppy disks to hard disks to flash drives and now solid state drives. When the ssd first came out it was expensive, however with the law of digital mass storage, the ssd too has become cheaper with increasing capacity. With bigger and faster SSDs, we may soon see the hard disk join the floppy disk in becoming obsolete as advances in technology continues to make us more efficient in the world of IT.
