There was a time when the hierarchy of persistent storage products consisted of just disk and NAND flash storage. But today a new layer has become possible, between disk/SSD and memory. It is often ...

Storage performance is never good enough. DRAM speeds are measured in nanoseconds, but is volatile/non-persistent, meanwhile, even the fastest non-volatile storage – such as Intel Optane/3D XPoint – ...

A new technical paper titled “Managed-Retention Memory: A New Class of Memory for the AI Era” was published by researchers at Microsoft. “AI clusters today are one of the major uses of High Bandwidth ...

Storage-class memory (SCM), RAM that has the ability to retain its contents like NAND flash memory but the speed of DRAM, will eventually supplant flash as the high-speed storage medium of choice.

IBM Research has been working on new non-volatile magnetic memory for over two decades. Non-volatile memory is wonderful for retaining data without power, but it is extremely slow, and does not last ...

In a bid to create smaller, more powerful computers and smartphones, researchers at New York University have come up with a new digital data storage technique they've dubbed "racetrack memory." There ...

Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced what it is calling a big breakthrough — creating a prototype of a computer with a single bank of memory that can process enormous amounts of information. The ...

Microsoft has detailed how it's changed Windows 10 to wipe out a class of memory bugs called uninitialized memory vulnerabilities using a new security feature that has plagued users of games that ...

Our brains have sensory cells, which process the faces that we see, and memory cells dedicated to storing data from person encounters. But until now, a hybrid neuron capable of linking vision to ...
