No question that speed capability will affect price, but I would expect that to depend mostly on SLC vs MLC vs TLC and process node. Or do we think that within a given process node and number of bits per cell a manufacturer would create variants of the design with different speeds? That would presumably involve either using more area per storage cell or smaller ratios of cells to sensors to provide higher performance.

I was thinking that when manufacturers test NAND chips they sort them by speed grades as well as testing for good or bad chips. Similar to the way Intel sorts CPUs by speed grade. Or is this a bad analogy for NAND chips.
