Samsung Said to Produce 300-Layer V-NAND in 2024

True.

It's a shame the best never became successful. I know its only a guess, but, I do think had Intel held on and produced one more generation, and other companies licensed the tech from Intel, we would have the next generation xpoint today. Can you imagine how fast it would be now? It was stable, extremely high reliability, and fastest made to date. Granted price was high, but so was nand.
Intel gave up on further development but indeed they could license out their technology to others - and there would have to be some other company seeing potential profit in it, and picking it up.

I think Intel coudn't find a way to builld Xpoint memory chips in (many) layers - and others (Hynix, Samsung) who dissected Intel's chips didn't think they could find a way, either. Even if they could obtain the license.

But the multi-layer manufacturing is advancing, there's a lot of research going on, I'm optimistic about DRAM too and I think we may see mass-produced DRAM chips in 3-4 years. Maybe, just maybe, those yellow and green blocks will get another chance around 2030.
 
I'm happy as long as we can buy larger m.2 drives without paying a lot more per TB beyond 2TB drives.
 
Why people got hyped for such things if ULTRA-RAM is right now behind the coroner?
===============================================================================
Also,why no one talks about Nantero which is a non volatile & super fast memory based on Graphene nano tubes?

To me the promises of these unknown companies are just a distant dream (not to mention fraud), until there is a working product available for purchase;
 
With you. Manufacturers need to be transparent.

State the type of NAND you use or we don't buy your product. It's that simple Samsung.
As much as I agree with this sentiment, my poor intellect fails to understand how you derived it from my smartass comment about imaginary numbers.

Oh! I thought that's what you were implying. That is how it seemed with the way you made that statement. Maybe I was overthinking it?

I was just one-upping Wirko with his e bits per cell with something even less possible.

You compliment me with your misunderstanding.
