Does this mean I can turn my next computer on and use it right away?

Does this mean my phone that takes 40 seconds to boot will be usable right away just like the first cell phone I had years ago?

So how fast can it bring up a now 21.5GB folder full of music?

I would like a 1EB sized backup drive using this technology.

Yeah, I mean Exo-bytes!

1MB = 1,000,000 Bytes
1GB = 1,000,000,000 Bytes
1TB = 1,000,000,000,000 Bytes
1PB = 1,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes
1EB = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 Bytes

Plenty of storage for anyone!

Flash RAM was a total blessing for so many applications/products that came to be a reality. Perhaps once they perfect the processing techniques for PCM to operate equal to silicon based transistors at WCS/WCF (worst case slow worse case fast) specs we shall see a shift away from silicon based technologies where it can apply, ex. cost effectiveness and reliability.

It would seem that the write speed might be a lot lower than the read time in PCM . . .

Pretty cool. I’m not even worried about the speed, since it would be simple to do massively parallel writes to overcome the slowness of individual operations.
