SSDs are doomed
The researchers took their empirical results and extrapolated them to the year 2024, when NAND flash development road maps show flash circuitry is expected to be only 6.5nm in size. At that time, read/write latency is expected to double in MLC flash and increase more than 2.5 times for TLC flash.
In addition, bit error rates increased by a factor of more than three, according to the researchers. "We can either have capacity or performance," Grupp said.
Especially using technology from 12 years ago.
Bah. This was a waste of time. It's Malthusian.
It's not me, it's someone else.
They're like a group of horse merchants inspecting the first automobile, proclaiming that you couldn't make it faster than a horse because it would require carrying hundreds of bails of hay to feed it at those speeds.
