Wafer-to-wafer bonding is used to form three-dimensional (3D) memory components such as 3D NAND flash memory with shared control circuitry on one die to access arrays on multiple dies. In one example, a non-volatile storage device includes a first die including a 3D array of non-volatile storage cells and CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) circuitry. A second die including a second 3D array of non-volatile storage cells is vertically stacked and bonded with the first die. At least a portion of the CMOS circuitry of the first die to access both the first 3D array of non-volatile storage cells of the first die and the second 3D array of non-volatile storage cells of the second die.
