Storage is a tricky thing. While Hard Drives are great for archiving Terabytes of Linux ISOs, they are VERY slow and their mechanical bits are vulnerable to magnets and wear and tear. SSD's are fast, but also susceptible to bit rot. RAM is super fast, but can't store anything once the power is off. But what if there was a tech that could solve (nearly) ALL of those problems? It's called Ferro Electric RAM, it's a form of Non-volatile RAM that has some incredible features. And a painfully high price.
