I saw solid state and my mind immediately went to amplifiers. And it also simultaneously thought “tube amps are king.”
I’m a weird person.
Is it really a big deal to scale up SSD drives to higher capacities? Isn’t it just a matter of addition of more memory modules within the enclosure?
The thing with traditional hard-drives was that reliably enclosing the intricate electro-mechanical components into a smaller package was always complicated. In this case, the size restrictions are rather imposing.
Just a matter of time; ‘spinning’ drives will go the way of 8-track tapes. Good riddance, I say.
if this gets cheap...man i guess i t would mean near instant startup, and a massive reduction in power requirements and indeed heat in server rooms. the battery life of a laptop would skyrocket.
or am i just wishing?
wonder what the reliability and lifetime of them are?
Can it calculate tips?
