Solid state drives are very fast. Most programs can fit in cache for fast execution. Is there still a need for large amounts of RAM? Website are about the only thing that still rely on it.
Maybe in the future when the speed of solid state drives becomes as fast as ram, or when it moves to some other technology like light computing or something, then maybe there won't need to be separate ram and storage...who knows?
Then you could turn off the computer anytime you like, and when turned on again it would resume exactly where it left off. :laughing:
Who knows what the future holds?
