Micron Announced 16nm Flash Process Technology For SSD.
<a href="https://www.micron.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Micron Technology, Inc.</a>, the only Titan of the 'Storage Technology' has announced the next generation of Flash process technology which will be used in SSDs. The latest die fabricated using 16nm process technology(which is capable of yielding 6TB storage from single wafer) will enable to develop the industry's smallest 128GB MLC NAND Flash Memory device. Micron in it's blog claims to be,"Most advanced processing node for any sampling semiconductor device." By far it is among the low-cost MLC device in existence.
Glen Hawk, VP of Micron's NAND Solutions group said :
Micron's dedicated team of engineers has worked tirelessly to introduce the world's smallest and most advanced Flash manufacturing technology.Our customers continually ask for higher capacities in smaller form factors, and this next-generation process node allows Micron to lead the market in meeting those demands.

This latest technology will benefit the next-generation commercial storage products like SSDs,Mobile handsets,Data centre cloud storage,USB Drives,etc.
The production of MLC NAND Flash memory device alongwith their partners will start from October 2013 & the chips will be shipped in the SSDs commercially from 2014 onwards.
This latest development by Micron assures it's global leadership in Storage Technology World.
