    Still good, Once upon a time HDDs were 10,000x slower than RAM, now top end SSDs are less than 100x slower than RAM, we might eventually reach a point where you can read and write directly from your hard-drive with no need for RAM at all.

      Well Intel’s Octane was meant to be that. I’m not sure it quite made it but anyway it ended up being way too expensive and people just stuck with RAM + disk.
