I asked my techie husband about 3D NAND he says "Samsung did it first and MU and Intel are “Late to The Party” " for what that is worth. - TMFFlygal
Hello, Flygal - I’ll refer you to my post (#12365) wherein I linked to several articles regarding the technical aspects of 3D XPoint. The second link in the post addressed the competition from Samsung…and SanDisk. The author believed the MU/INTC variant is qualitatively superior. Since we’re still on the cusp of widespread adoption, it’ll be some time before we’ll get real world performance data with which to judge winners and losers. That’s why I’m building a position in MU slowly (3% at this point). The holding has already proved profitable, but there’s a long road ahead. I’ll be watching developments closely.
