In the spirit of solid state devices (SSD) including DRAM and nand flash, not to mention emerging phase chance memory (PCM) among others that help to boost productivity and cut latency, here are a couple of quick notes and links.
Here are a some more pieces to have a quick look at:

SSD Is in Your Future: Where, When & With What Are the Questions
Storage & IO trends for 2013 and beyond
SSD, flash and DRAM, DejaVu or something new?
Have SSDs been unsuccessful with storage arrays (with poll)?

Also check out here what Micron has in mind with merging nand flash with the DDR4 (e.g. DRAM socket) memory bus for servers in a year or two.
Ok, nuff said.
