SK hynix to Boost NAND Flash Production in China by 50% in 2027

What happened

SK hynix plans to increase NAND Flash production capacity in Dalian by 50% by 2027, resuming expansion plans halted for four years. The move involves producing advanced 200-layer 3D QLC NAND for enterprise SSDs. Given that global NAND supply is expected to balance with demand in 2027, this capacity increase suggests a potential oversupply, exerting downward pressure on prices.
