Samsung Rolls Out New Flash Memory Chip
[news=http://news.google.com/news?imgefp=QCcL48xsQPsJ&imgurl=www.earthtimes.org/newsimage/samsung_creates_1295.jpg]Samsung Electronics Latest News about Samsung today unveiled a new flash memory chip it says will double storage capacity on portable music players and other mobile devices.
Memory cards containing multiple 16-gigabit NAND chips mean "you will be able to take your entire music and personal video libraries with you," Chang-Gyu Hwang, president of the company's semiconductor operations, told reporters.
Major Density
For example, the company said that by combining 16 such devices on a memory card with a density of up to 32-gigabytes it would be possible to store 200 years worth of an average-sized daily newspaper, 8,000MP3 music files or 20 DVD movies.
The company said it plans to begin mass producing the chips in the second half of 2006.
