It wasn't all that long ago that storage (aka 'memory' was on internal hard drives - with a read/write head and with disks that rotated underneath the read/write head to pull in information (or .. to write information).
Now, as this article suggest, SSD - solid state devices (aka - things like USB memory sticks) are in - faster, more reliable, no moving parts, and more capacity.
Think of your own music storage devices - from cassette tapes; to CD rom; to MP3 players - talk about disruptive (or innovative) technologies. So ... faster, cheaper, more reliable ... what's NOT to like in SSD devices!!! While not quite appropriate, think of Moore's Law in a parallel university of storage!!
