Huawei ships 122TB SSD using proprietary NAND packaging to sidestep US 3D chip sanctions
Huawei has developed a 122TB solid-state drive using a new packaging technology that crams more NAND memory dies into a smaller footprint, circumventing U.S. export restrictions on advanced 3D NAND chips. The proprietary tech marks the company's latest hardware workaround to maintain storage capacity amid sanctions.
For enterprise storage teams, this signals Huawei's ability to engineer around supply-chain restrictions and deliver high-capacity solutions to Chinese markets. The efficiency gains in die-stacking may influence how competitors optimize packaging going forward.
