Samsung Electronics has started mass producing DDR4 memories that it expects will go into enterprise servers in next-generation data centers.
A successor to the DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3), DDR4 memories are expected to offer higher performance, reliability and lower power consumption than its predecessor.
However, there have been some doubts (http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9238373/Adoption_of_DDR4_memory_facing_delays?pageNumber=1 ) as to whether the market is ready to transition in volumes from DDR3 memories which are still being designed into servers and other products. Some analysts have forecast that the component will get designed into servers and later PCs only by 2015.
Samsung said on Thursday that early market availability of the 4-gigabit (Gb) DDR4 devices, which use 20-nanometer process technology, will create demand for 16GB and 32GB memory modules.
