IT之家 2 月 18 日消息，据路透社援引日本共同社报道，日本 3D NAND 闪存制造商铠侠（Kioxia）向其投资者、韩国竞争对手 SK 海力士（SK Hynix）提议，允许其在铠侠位于日本的工厂生产非易失性存储器。此举旨在让 SK 海力士改变其对铠侠与西部数据合并计划的反对态度，目前尚不清楚 SK 海力士是否会对此提议感兴趣。 IT之家注意到，铠侠与西部数据的合并谈判去年陷入停滞，原因是韩国公司 SK 海力士反对美日两家公司合并成大型 3D NAND 闪存芯片巨头。SK 海力士之所以阻挠合并，是因为合并后的公司规模将远超其自身。 为了克服这一障碍并获得 SK 海力士的支持，铠侠提议允许其使用由铠侠和西部数据联合运营的日本 3D NAND 晶圆厂来生产芯片。这一战略性提议旨在为合并获得批准铺平道路，最终在全球 3D NAND 闪存芯片市场中创造一个巨头。 借助铠侠提供的额外产能，SK 海力士可以大幅提升其 3D NAND 存储器产量，而无需投资扩建或新建工厂，这看起来似乎是一个颇具吸引力的提议。然而，该交易的具体财务条款尚未披露。 根据 TrendForce 追踪的 2023 年第三季度市场份额，合并 ...
