Flash Memory Summit Flash Memory Summit (FMS) is an all-inclusive memory and storage showcase for the world. Note that there are two major types of flash: NOR and NAND.

Flash Memory Summit focuses on flash memory, a type of constantly powered nonvolatile memory that can be erased and rewritten in units called blocks. Flash is rugged, small, low-cost, low-power, and fast; it allows for compact systems with simple startup and low power consumption. It is ideal for consumer applications such as cellphones, digital cameras, and music players, and is also useful in computers, communications systems, and military/defense applications. Flash-based drives (so-called solid-state drives or SSDs) can replace hard disks for storage in applications where its higher cost is balanced by its shorter access time, smaller size, greater ruggedness, and lower power consumption. NOR (because of its byte accessibility) is used mostly to store programs, such as boot-up code that gets a machine started when it is powered on (standard memory loses its contents when powered off). NAND (which is accessible only a block at a time) is used to store data, such as pictures, videos, and music in cellphones, tablets, digital cameras and music players. Market growth is almost entirely in NAND.
