Micron – Offers NAND with Highest Number of Layers = 176

Micron Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: MU) has announced the availability of a sample of the world’s first vertically-integrated 176-layer NAND solid-state drive (SSD) for data center applications. This new data center SSD features Micron’s industry-leading NAND with 176 layers of storage cells and proven CMOS-under-the-array technology for an ultra-efficient design.

Last year, organizations that used high encryption standards for data at rest and in motion paid 29.4 percent less for a data breach than organizations that used low or no standard encryption. Micron SSDs include self-encrypting drive functionality and Microsoft eDrive options to help protect against data breaches and tailor security to specific data protection needs.
