Driven by the growing capacity of nearline HDDs for AI, Resonac and other Japanese component makers have moved to increase production. Even as overall unit shipments decline, investment in recording media, heads, and glass substrates is expanding.
Nanya Technology forecasts the 2026 memory market will exceed $800 billion. Based on WSTS outlook and the company's earnings, we track how AI inference demand, price increases, and 2028 new fab plans will move the market.
Spot prices for DDR4 8Gb rose 3.27% in a week, yet transactions remained sluggish. Supply allocation and falling NAND prices reveal a fragmented demand picture in the memory market.
TrendForce forecasts that the NAND supply shortage will ease in the second half of 2027. Higher-density conversions on existing lines, increased production by Chinese manufacturers, and falling demand from smartphones and notebook PCs will support the supply-demand reversal.
In Shenzhen's Huaqiangbei district, used 16GB DDR4 has fallen more than 30% from its peak, while new modules and DRAM contract prices continue to rise. This piece untangles the coexistence of localized price drops and a still-tight global supply situation.
We verify ADATA Chairman's prediction that 'the memory shortage will last for the next 10 years' against primary sources from Micron and SK hynix. We break down the structure by which HBM's wafer consumption and capacity expansion plans extending through 2033 will delay a recovery in supply.
SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won warned that soaring memory prices could shrink device demand, and called for expanded supply ahead of a projected surge in AI-related customer demand in 2027. This article examines SK hynix's 1,100 trillion won investment strategy and the time lag before mass production comes online.
Reports indicate that three major memory makers, including Samsung, have scaled back in-house development of CXL controllers. Product development continues, with a shift toward a division of labor that incorporates externally designed control chips.
Starting from reports that Samsung has begun mass production of V10 V-NAND and supplying it to NVIDIA, this article organizes the changes that NVIDIA CMX—which places KV cache on shared flash—brings to demand and supply for AI NAND.
A Korean game contest caps the post-extraction package—including the executable and required runtime—at 1,474,560 bytes. Examining the gap between raw physical capacity and typical DOS-usable space reveals where engine selection meets the boundaries of the execution environment.
