The module consists of several 8GB 20 nm class DDR4 chips and uses TSV(Through Silicon Via) technology to achieve the capacity. The memory works at 2133 Mbps and with a 64-bit I/O it processes up to 17GB of data per second. It's also more energy efficient as it runs at 1.2V instead of the 1.35V of DDR3.

Besides a 128GB module, the company also plans to manufacture a 64GB version. The company has not disclosed any information on pricing and availability.
