Hello Carlisle1500,

The new 3D XPoint™ Technology was recently announced. It is a non-volatile memory technology that has the potential to revolutionize any device, application or service.

You can check the information available about it in the following website:

http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/non-volatile-memory.html Non-Volatile Memory

Additional details about devices using 3D XPoint™ Technology and their availability will be released through standard official channels as they become available.

Can we revisit this conversation?

I need to know the following now:

1. When will sales go live?

2. Can partners get access to prototypes and presentation material to build demand?

3. Will the technology be export restricted?
