If we really give up the nice and tidy power of 2 layers, does that mean we will also give up the capacities ? And each product will have some random capacity determined by number of layers ?
Sounds confusing, decadic system is too complicated to me.
It's a 1Tbit (128GB) die. The number of layers simply refers to the number of active memory layers and it's still possible to build dies in capacities of power of 2.
It's great for rocket launches though - unless said rocket has a SpaceX logo on it which would imply detonation on or just above the launch pad and a billowing cloud in the shape of a certain Twitter owner's face.
I wish it would be possible to do the same with Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) MRAM : 1Tb (128GB) (VCMA) MRAM die, non volatile, fast and low power memory would open so maly new opportunities in mobile and Internet of Things (IoT) devices

If it's 321, then one might assume it would be 3x107 layersabufrejoval - Wednesday, August 9, 2023 - link
3-2-1, can't help but thinking that it sounds a bit ominous for a storage device...PeachNCream - Wednesday, August 9, 2023 - link

Guess you’ve never heard of a Falcon 9.PeachNCream - Friday, August 11, 2023 - link
Yes, I have heard of that branding for SpaceX explosions.meacupla - Wednesday, August 9, 2023 - link
why? Endurance of >1TB SSD using 3D nand is extremely good.Diogene7 - Sunday, August 13, 2023 - link
