MyMemoryStore.com, Samsung Semiconductor Inc.'s ebusiness web site, has joined with AMD to enhance Samsung's support for the ``Powered By DDR Memory'' program initiative. This Samsung Semiconductor ebusiness resource enables solution providers, VARS, distributors, and manufacturers to obtain Samsung Double Data Rate (DDR) memory modules directly from the world's leading memory manufacturer in the shortest possible time and at competitive prices. Samsung's unequivocal support for the DDR marketplace is clearly demonstrated by the availability of the full range of Samsung DDR modules, the most comprehensive range of fully validated modules on the market.

All Samsung's DDR SDRAM DIMM modules are available in either PC2100 or PC1600 speed ratings to suit customer performance and price requirements. All modules are in full production and all are shipping now. Samsung has an on-going program of continuous technology improvement and is currently developing both faster and denser modules to meet its customers' projected system requirements. These modules will be validated as they become available.

MyMemoryStore.com offers easy order handling, low minimum quantities, same-day shipment, choice of shippers and backlog logging. Accounting procedures are simple and streamlined for customer convenience and credit card options are available. MyMemoryStore.com is also able to accept international orders from customers on a global basis.

``We intend to support the growing DDR market with the fastest and widest range of customer solutions available,'' said John Park, vice president of sales at Samsung Semiconductor, Inc. ``As the market leader in DDR and other memory products, Samsung will provide its customers with direct access to its most advanced technology through MyMemoryStore.com.''

MyMemoryStore.com is a web-based resource for resellers, VARs, and distributors, to efficiently purchase quality memory modules directly from the leading memory supplier. The web site is also a centralized repository of comprehensive tools and information designed to help members identify, select, and configure memory subsystems for today's leading PCs.

``Samsung Semiconductor has done an excellent job of paving the way for low cost, high-performance DDR technology for the server, workstation and desktop PC markets,'' said Rex Meek, Director of the Hardware Infrastructure Relations Group for AMD. ``This ecommerce initiative by Samsung's MyMemoryStore.com completes the circle by ensuring that high-performance DDR SDRAM will only be a mouse-click away from our customers.''
