    Sandisk posts 51% sequential revenue jump to $9B on AI storage buildout

    Question

    Sandisk posts 51% sequential revenue jump to $9B on AI storage buildout

    Direct answer

    Sandisk reported quarter-over-quarter revenue growth of 51% to reach $9 billion, underscoring that AI data center demand has broadened from accelerators to storage tiers. Chief Executive David Goeckeler indicated that data center storage growth remains in an early scaling phase as training and inference clusters demand higher throughput. The performance provides an incremental data point for broader memory and storage peers benefiting from tight supply and enterprise SSD price realization.
