#34 – NAND Shortage? What NAND Shortage!  with Jim Handy

In this week’s podcast, the team chat again with Jim Handy from Objective Analysis.  Jim is an analyst covering the semiconductor industry and provides some great insight into where pricing is headed in the NAND flash market.  The conversation covers some of the technical challenges the industry faces, as well as the impact from China entering the market.  Finally, the guys discuss the impact on Enterprise storage pricing.

There are some interesting observations in this conversation, such as the capability for NAND to be used in multiple densities and how the ability for the Enterprise market to follow the consumer market is driven by increasingly more sophisticated controllers.  Enjoy!

You can find out more about Jim’s company at http://objective-analysis.com/ and follow him on his two blogs at http://thessdguy.com/ and http://thememoryguy.com/.
