Imagine 384 GB Of Space In Your Cellphone


Now this is why I love technology so much; you have to expect the unexpected and new amazing innovations just appear out of nowhere.

Hynix has just developed the world’s first MCP(Multi Chip Package) Nand Flash memory chips which are capable of storing up to 384 Gigabytes of data in a SD card size Package - more than enough space to store loads of high definition movies and your favourite music in that space.

What’s special about the new NAND technology?

The new technology uses 24 ultra thin stacked NAND flash memory chips with size of 1.4 mm only which has made possible to store upto 48 GB of storage space allowing your portables to store up to 10,000 music files in a SD card size MCP.

How the magical 384 GB of space could be achieved

Hynix is aiming at developing Multi chip package with 28 ultra thin Stacked NAND chips in the coming years which will make it possible to have 384 GB of space that is way too much for any movie buffs and music lovers.

If you are wondering what Multi chip package is then MCP is a process in which Flash memory and SRAM(Static RAM) is combined to produce a single 1.4 mm package which is a industry standard for now.

Hynix is the third largest NAND chip maker after Samsung and Toshiba and has big plans for the NAND chip market. The growing competition among the chipmakers would definitely benefit the end users,we will definitely get to see more such cool technologies and innovations. No release date for the planned 28 stacked MCP version is available yet.

    384 GB data, technology has advance too much. I remember my first PC has 264 MB hard disk, now my RAM is more than that.

    384 GB is huge! But how about the read and write speed while using in cellphones. I have heard that the 8 GB N90 phone hangs all the time while reading data.

    I guess the phones would have to catch up. Have heard many users complaining that their phones going slow after a good amount of data is stored.
    Well I have heard of some new technology that states that they would be coming with hard disks that would not have any movable parts. Thus less heating for laptops

    @Nirmal
    The actual time would be definitely faster than what we have today.N90 problem is because of Firmware i guess.
    @Web Design
    The hdd’s you are talking about are again Flash Based and yes they would be good for laptops as they are shock proof as well.

    384 Gigabytes ?
    a amazing dream…

    This is a great advance for the future as people demand more information at there finger tips. I think that its more than enough for a phone but could see change the way notebooks work in the future

    Great. In my PC now hard disc space less. Now sever can be in the pocket.

    Really impressive advance in nanotechnology once again. I guess we’ll be able to carry all our data in just a small chip in near future.

    phew, pretty insane. can’t wait for the next cellphone trade show, maybe 384 gigs will be standard by then :)
