Kioxia and Sandisk unveil ninth-generation 2Tb QLC 3D flash for AI workloads
Kioxia and Sandisk unveiled a ninth-generation 2Tb QLC 3D flash technology using their CMOS directly Bonded to Array architecture, targeting AI and data-intensive infrastructure with higher bandwidth, improved efficiency and a 4.8Gb/s NAND interface.
Why it matters
The announcement increases QLC bit density and interface performance within Kioxia and Sandisk's next-generation NAND roadmap, but the release is a technology unveiling and should not be read as proof of broad system deployment or independent workload-level performance gains.
