Solid state drives (AKA high-content flash storage) are far less reliable and far, FAR less time-proof than holographic storage. Holographic storage is a concept proven to be usable decades past write-date. Hard-drives become corrupt FAR before then, and flash memory isn't much more reliable than that.

Please supply links and other evidence to support this claim.

 

Solid state drives are in production and improving every month, last I checked I coudn't buy a holographic drive at the Best Buy at the corner of the street.

 

And I can drop my laptop with a solid state drive from a 10 feet height and know I will not loose any data....

And finally, who needs a hardrive that will work decades past the write date in their PC or laptop ?

Like I said this is for mass storage, not day to day useage...

Theres still a good chance you'll lose the laptop.

Anyway, the real question for this technology is, what throughput will it give? Blu Ray kinda maxes out round the 40MB/S mark. If it can do 3* that, fantastic. If it can do 10* that then make way for the possible future optical standard for consoles.
