Micron has announced that it intends to stop manufacturing 3D XPoint memory this year and exit the market due to a lack of demand.
Although 3D XPoint isn’t a well-known name, Intel’s Optane is, which relied on the specialized memory allowing it to be as fast as RAM, but able to store data like an SSD. However, Intel sold its share in the 3D XPoint business to Micron back in 2018 and earlier this year announced consumer models of its Optane-only SSDs were being discontinued.
