I don’t get why storage isn’t sexier compared to CPUs. Vast amounts of cheap and fast storage is the enabler of our current computing paradigm, every bit as much as CPU tech. And it’s just as cutting edge! NAND is working right up against the limits of physics just like every semiconductor technology. There are hugely interesting problems being solved around optimizing cost and performance and capacity and scalability.
But all the buzz seems to be about RISC-V and Apple’s chips, and Intel’s woes. All the hardware superstars are CPU people. Who’s the Jim Keller of storage?
