Computer memory and storage have always followed the Law of Closet Space. No matter how much you have, you shortly discover that it isn’t enough. So it’s good news that scientists in Switzerland are ...

With the DRAM shortage already making memory upgrades prohibitively expensive, high-end SSD prices have also spiked in recent weeks. This surge is being driven by the ...

The supply shortage of the RAM needed to build phones and PCs isn’t going away. But a few companies have a plan to solve it.

Researchers have demonstrated that the layered multiferroic material nickel iodide (NiI2) may be the best candidate yet for devices such as magnetic computer memory that are extremely fast and compact ...

The Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities in 2018 exposed computer memory as an easy target for hackers to inject malicious code and steal data. The aftermath spurred the adoption of memory-safe chips ...

It's especially important because, while the type of memory -- whether it be DDR, DDR2, or some other -- is locked in stone by which motherboard and processor your system works with, you get to choose ...

Materials with high magnetoelectric coupling could be useful in novel devices such as magnetic computer memories, chemical sensors and quantum computers. When researchers irradiate a thin layer of ...

We are tasking our computers with processing ever-increasing amounts of data to speed up drug discovery, improve weather and climate predictions, train artificial intelligence, and much more. To keep ...

Computer memory could one day withstand the blazing temperatures in fusion reactors, jet engines, geothermal wells and sweltering planets using a new solid-state memory device developed by a team of ...
