Faster than solid state?
Do you think there will ever be anything faster than solid state storage?

Re: Faster than solid state?
Yes, I think there would be something faster than SSD. I read a few years ago that it is possible to use light to transfer and store data.

Re: Faster than solid state?
If everything like the CPU, RAM, storage drive, and motherboard uses light instead of electrical signals, a computer may boot in 1 second. Light maximum speed is a lot faster than the maximum speed of electricity.

I would want a computer which can start any operating system, or large game and software in a few seconds.

Re: Faster than solid state?
solid state is crazy pricey right now, how much would light transfer would cost would you think?
