NAND-flash: the industry’s workhorse for storage applications

For several decades, NAND-flash has been the primary technology for low-cost and large-density storage applications. This non-volatile memory is present in all major electronic end-use markets, such as smartphones, servers, PCs, tablets, and USB drives. In the conventional computer memory hierarchy, NAND-flash is located the furthest away from the CPU, and is known to be relatively cheap, slow, and dense compared to SRAM and DRAM.
