RAM will not lose data when power supply is off. To fix this promises memory type ReRAM (Resistive Random Access Memory, Resistive RAM), which beginning of mass production could begin at the end of this year.
According to a senior manager SK Hynix , the company's customers will be able to obtain commercial supplies ReRAM memory at the earliest in 2015. In other words, the beginning of resistive RAM production by the company SK Hynix sidelined for at least a half year. As for IBM, then the connection is not so obvious, although the memory ReRAM interesting from the point of view of the server application. Finally, SK Hynix calls the name of another potential customer for ReRAM - Toshiba company . However, this is questionable.
On one hand, asscociate reports that, since 2011, SK Hynix and Toshiba are partners in the development of a new memory type . It is known that Toshiba is developing ReRAM tightly and have no place of SK Hynix. The plans of the Japanese manufacturer noted that the mass production of the new memory chips will be held in 2015 . This indirectly confirms the US-based SanDisk, firmly seated in the production of Toshiba.
