March 14, 2025 – Kioxia, a global leader in storage solutions, has announced the launch of its next-generation LC9 Series 122.88TB NVMe™ SSD, setting a new benchmark for ultra-high-capacity enterprise storage.

As the AI revolution continues to reshape the tech landscape, memory giant SK Hynix has announced a strategic shift in its CIS (CMOS Image Sensor) business to focus on AI-driven memory solutions. This move aims to strengthen the company’s position in the rapidly growing AI market, where high-performance storage solutions are in increasing demand.

Micron has officially launched its first PCIe 5.0 SSD for OEMs, the 4600 series, marking a significant upgrade from its predecessor. Unlike the Crucial T70x series, which is targeted at consumer markets, the 4600 SSD is designed exclusively for OEM partners, ensuring high-performance storage solutions for enterprise applications.

In a significant move for the solid-state drive (SSD) market, Solidigm and Broadcom have renewed their multi-year partnership to develop high-capacity SSD controllers specifically designed for AI-driven infrastructure. This latest agreement underscores the two companies’ long-standing collaboration in advancing SSD technology across multiple generations.

Researchers Develop a Faster, More Efficient Deep Hole Etching Process for 3D NAND Flash A recent scientific breakthrough has significantly improved deep hole etching speed in 3D NAND flash memory, potentially paving the way for higher-density and larger-capacity storage. According to reports, researchers have discovered a new plasma-based etching process that doubles the speed of deep trench formation while also enhancing precision.

On December 18, 2024, SK Hynix announced the development of its high-capacity enterprise SSD (eSSD), the PS1012 U.2, designed specifically for AI-driven data centers. With a 61TB QLC NAND-based storage capacity, the new SSD represents a leap in performance and capacity, aligning with the rapidly growing demands of AI-era infrastructure.

On November 20, 2024, the MTS2025 Storage Industry Trends Conference took place in Shenzhen, hosted by global high-tech research firm TrendForce and Global Semiconductor Watch. The event brought together leading figures from the semiconductor storage and terminal industries, senior analysts, and over 1,000 professionals from across the supply chain. Lite-On Storage Technology, a subsidiary of KIOXIA Corporation, showcased its latest storage products and advanced technologies, engaging in in-depth discussions about storage trends and future developments.
