Given I think even the highest end of SSD is only just touching 15GB/s and RAM about 100GB/s I think?
I do wonder how long it will be before we actually see these transfer speeds
It's less of "wow we can to 1TB/s on 16 lanes" and more "wow we can do 64GB/s on 1 lane and have 16 devices in the same space we only could've done 1/2/4 before"
Not in the next 30 years. Moore's law has slowed down because of constraints with the materials that are used.
