3D NAND

Solidigm, the NAND flash subsidiary of SK hynix, is adding a new original design manufacturer (ODM) site in Taiwan for data-center SSDs, according to industry reporting that surfaced October 5, 2026, from Seoul Economic Daily, Aju Press, and DIGITIMES. The company told customers via a product change notification last month; products built at the new site are expected to begin shipping in December under the same quality standards and terms as existing output.

Micron Technology has sued Chinese memory maker Yangtze Memory Technologies, or YMTC, accusing it of systematically poaching Micron engineers to obtain 3D NAND trade secrets and then using those engineers' patents to sue Micron. The 103-page complaint, filed September 15 in federal court in Idaho, escalates a patent war that has already spread across three continents.
