The NAND flash memory market has evolved (or devolved depending on who you ask) into a battle of the BoMs, where the lowest price usually wins. But is that really the only consideration anymore when selecting a flash memory device, particularly for harsh environment applications?

During the discussion, the Insiders learn why the flash memory market is one where older technology is more expensive and more reliable – and not for the reasons you'd think.
