ASAP Memory Blog | Latest Updated on Memory Upgrades

Many people are always seeking for the best options when it comes to SD cards.  There are many types and many different ones that are currently being offered. There are many different types and many different productions of them. Many are good and many are not as good. Therefore, StartTech has released a new idea.

Mostly everyone has a mobile device these days. Now of course there are some exceptions to that but we can safely say that many people do have access to own a mobile device and many uses it for personal and professional needs.  Mobile devices can carry a lot of stuff. Users save music, images, books. All sorts of information that needs a lot of memory. This new generation of smart phones do not have a lot of capacity to save a lot stuff on it. The bigger the capacity of memory cards the better.

Adata is always looking for ways to improve their products. Even though the products that they currently have are excellent they are always on the daily looking for better improved products and this is exactly what sets them apart. For example, they recently announced a new product in their XPG DDR4 family called the “XPG Flame, this new product is excellent and an improved version of what they had before. ' The main different between the new and the old line is that is has a heat spreader and the new memory will be available in both U-DIMM and SO-DIMM models.

On September 27^th 2016, Bryce Smith wrote an article for Hot Hardware reviewing the new SanDisk Extreme 510 which is the company’s new storage device. The SanDisk Extreme 510 was targeted towards photographers, videographers and creative professionals. The SanDisk Extreme has a storage capacity of 480 GB which uses a USB to connect to PC’s. This product can read up to 430 MB/s and can write approximately 400 MB/s using a 3.0 USB connection.

It also depends on how successful it is for the long term, for example companies don’t just look how successful certain new technology will be in a moth they test and so research to see how successful it is within 5-10 years, they also want to know what the kind of performance they should be expecting. A new technology has been developed that can replace the current RAM, this new phase change memory is being tested and developed. It is called the PCM (phase change memory), this is said that it could potentially be the solution for the memory gap. This is important because many have been noticing that the DRAM memory latency has been dropping slowly. Therefore, companies have been looking desperately for a new memory span products. That is why many companies are excited about the PCM. But companies must keep in mind that even though phase change memory will be able to operate at picosecond timescales. It does not guarantee that the technology will fully replace DRAM.

Hootoos new adapter is what everyone has been looking for. It is one that many people need and want. This new adapter is very efficient. One of the best qualities it has is that is can charge and power a laptop while allowing the user to connect more than one peripheral, it also allows fit data transfer. This display has a mac inspired design which makes it more user friendly.

DDR5 DRAM is getting a lot of attention. It is gaining a lot popularity due to its wide memory span.  Even though the specifications of it are no released yet, the development of it will begin in 2020. This DDR5 DRAM has many benefits. Some of the benefits are that users will be able to cram a lot more computer memory into their PCs which will make certain application run faster, this is necessary for many people and big companies that care about being efficient and getting the most done in a short period. Also, it is being denser and could consume less power that could lead to extending battery life in certain laptops.

As of March 2016, Samsung has started to send out their 15.36TB solid state drive (SSD) and has been tagged to cost an approximated 10,000. Although it is viewed as a high ranged piece it results to be cost efficient being sold for an approximate 63 cents per gigabyte compared to many other consumer SSD. Due to Samsung’s PM1633a SSD high performance and efficiency it isn’t necessarily marketed for the average gamer and computer geek but for a higher stature of capacity needing customer such as the enterprise class. The Gargantuan Samsung storage drive is twice as fast as the average consumer SSD is capable of,” read and write speeds up to 200,000 and 32,000 I/Os per second (IOPS), respectively, and it sports sequential read and write speeds up to 1200 Mbps.”

“Intel’s new SSDs include the consumer 600p SSDs, which are priced at $69 for a 128GB model And $359 for a 1TB drive” Intel is a large corporation that priorities and makes it one of their top goals to be efficient and diverse with its customers. Because Intel is always trying to find ways to improve their products, they came up with the idea of expanding their lineup of SSD with their 3D NAND chips. These chips will be more affordable for consumers and enterprises.

On August 31, 2016 Lucas Mearian wrote an article for Computer World talking about how Fujitsu Semiconductor Ltd has unveiled its new RAM that is 1000 times the performance of DRAM. Not only this, but Fujitsu also announced that the data is stored like the NAND flash memory.
