SSDs use a type of ram.
That is a silly question.

Non-volatile RAM. The OP probably meant volatile RAM :p

I have wanted to use that for years.
I even had some left over bubble memory in the '80s.

Both are still really just suited to storage.
Even with the more to DDR4, ram is still too damned slow.
