New type of Nand being mass produced by samsung:

This may give a new perspective on whether we should go for an internal SD card, or Nand.


This new type of Nand created by Samsung reaches read speeds of 140 MB per second, and 50 MB per second writing speed.


If SD cards cannot match this speed by the end of 2013, then going for this Nand chip might be a better idea, to maintain optimal data bandwith in the Pandora 2.

and 50 MB per second reading speed.

hate to be that guy but you did mean write speed ^^


thanks for the post so much tech to keep track of

Oops, sorry il fix it

with all of this new hardware coming out can't wait to see what the op gods mold together for the pando2

SD cards use NAND flash memory so i'm guessing that they will.

Well, youre right they use flash too, but in this case i am not sure if SD controllers will be able to handle the speed that this Nand can.


They would have to release a new type of SD controller of a much higher speed class then currently available.

I'm sure one will be if needed, because the SD Association won't want to fall too far behind Compact Flash which already has cards with 150MB/s read speed available. http://www.lexar.com/node/5163

It costs 960 $.


Don't think I'll get a SD card if it's more expensive than the Pandora istelf.

Considering that read 90 write 90 is already out there...

I suspect when these new NAND chips start hitting actual devices, SDXC memory with similar speeds (NAND as well) will likely be released too.


The real limit right now isn't so much the speed of the cards but the devices they're being put into.
