Recent increases in Apple’s orders of NAND flash memory are causing difficulties for other customers of the company’s suppliers, reports DigiTimes. Hynix Semiconductors and Samsung Electronics began reserving more of their stock for Apple beginning in July, according to Taiwan memory house sources. Both companies told customers in late June that July supplies would be constrained as Apple pre-stocks the flash memory in anticipation of a seasonal upturn in demand. Apple uses NAND flash memory in the iPod nano, iPod shuffle, and iPhone.
