According to the latest TrendForce survey, in the first quarter of 2026, due to large-scale transfer of advanced manufacturing processes and new production capacity to servers and HBM applications by original DRAM manufacturers to meet AI server demand, supply in other markets was severely tight, and it is estimated that overall general DRAM contract prices will increase 55-60% month-on-month. NAND Flash, on the other hand, is expected to continue to rise 33-38% in contract prices for various products due to the original factory's production capacity control and strong server handling and crowding out other applications.
