The volatile memory market is ever-changing. The key to understanding the volatile DRAM market direction is by analyzing and tracking DRAM supply and demand. iSuppli accomplishes this by providing DRAM technology demand scenarios based on PC unit growth and DRAM content growth. We provided analysis on significant trends and changes in the marketplace including the transition to DD3 memory, the ups and downs of DRAM prices, total available market forecast by density and by technology and a revised ASP forecast, as well as estimates of cost and profitability by DRAM supplier.

Flash memory, on the other hand, is its own animal. Developments in both the mobile and embedded flash space are focused on by iSuppli from both a product and market-shift perspective. Specifically, we focus on SD flash memory, compact flash memory cards, digital camera memory, secure digital memory and detailed analysis into cell phone and smart phone flash memory.

The hurdles facing solid state storage and data storage devices is one of adoption: USB storage device and data storage devices will try to attract increasing adoption by offering higher capacity drives through its meticulous rise in areal density; on the other hand, solid state storage will offer price as the sweet spot of attraction. These topics as well as storage pricing, forecasting, technology advancements, cost models and more are iSuppli’s specialty.
