SanDisk Announces 16GB iNAND Embedded Flash Drive

SanDisk has announced the 16-gigabyte iNAND embedded flash drive (EFD). During February 11-14, the Company will be showcasing this new product, along with many other products designed specifically for the mobile industry, in the main SanDisk booth, #8C55, located in Hall 8 of the Fira de Barcelona convention center.

Adding to the 8GB iNAND from SanDisk, this new iNAND packs double the storage capacity into a standard JEDEC 12x16mm package thanks to recent advances in multi-level cell NAND flash technology.

iNAND is designed for the latest mobile handsets, which feature a growing number of storage-intensive features including music players, digital cameras, and video recording, playback and GPS capabilities. By providing abundant storage for these features, in addition to high performance and reliability, iNAND helps to enable new and exciting mobile experiences for mobile handset users.

iNAND devices adhere to JEDEC package and ball-out requirements, common throughout the industry, providing virtually "plug and play" integration and allowing them to be designed into mobile handsets quickly. Additionally, iNAND devices utilize the industry-leading and field-proven SD interface.

iNAND 16GB is expected to be available for sampling to mobile handset vendors in Q2 2008, with iNAND 32GB slated for introduction in H2 2008.
