Toshiba Aims at Beating Samsung's Flash Business
Flash and memory is everywhere you go. Be it mobile phones, tablets, notebooks and even desktops in the form of solid state drives.


An ambitious project
The fabrication plant built isn’t small scale. The plant located in Mie Prefecture, Japan is a 5-storey building spread over an area of 187 thousand square feet. The new Fab 5 is designed to be earthquake resistant and also more energy efficient. Looking at current demands, it makes good sense to have collaborations and investments in the Flash space. The investments are sure to pay off. Whether or not a Flash business the size that Samsung owns can be defeated easily is only to be seen.
Our resident Hardware Ninja, Rossi, lives for speed - by uhh riding his bicycle. He's Tech2's utility man, dividing his time between cameras, software and intense bouts of Quake III. He's also a fan of all things obscure, case in point, Live for Speed (sic). Never heard of it? We rest our case. In his spare time he tries to teach our new joinees the tricks of the trade even though the blood sweat and tears, but give him a camera and all things forgotten.
