Does AMD's solution allow the ORNAND to be written the same as DRAM? I was looking at NOR specs to see what write speeds were and could only find info on "erase" speeds and "programming" speeds. So, it appears that to write to NOR, you have to erase the sector that contains the data you want to write, and then write the entire sector over again.

Dan;

Each technology will have its place. I doubt either one will crush the other. Samsung's advantage will be that it's cheap - but it had better be cheap, and there will be cases where a $20 easy-to-design-in low power Mirrorbit chip will win compared to a $5 difficult-to-design-in higher power OneNAND solution.

In case of cell phones Samsung makes the phones as well and perhaps that's one of the reasons.

Thanks for pointing out possible advantages/disadvantages
