VentureBeat: The death of disk? HDDs still have an important role to play. https://venturebeat.com/2019/09/02/the-death-of-disk-hdds-still-have-an-impo... I invented the SSD (solid state disk) in August 1980, first marketed one in August 1981.See "SemiDisk Systems".

"Solid state"... does anyone make a RAMdrive on PCIe or faster interface... that you can actually populate with more than a lousy 4 dimms... at least 32 up to a chassis stuffed with 500/512 of them. There is a market for ludicrous speed if it can beat cost or performance of todays parallel node fabrics. DYOR. https://old.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/cmq0bg/backblaze_hard_drive_st...
