3DX Point Memory 1000x faster than SSDs (NAND) and 10x denser

Look at your SmartPhone. Impressive, isn't it? Just like Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, Intel and Micron - two behemoths of the microchip fabrication world - landed an impressive blow to the status quo across the memory storage board especially Random Access Memory (RAM) that has held out since 1989.

Now pity your SmartPhone, to paraphrase Kenshiro's famous quip before he slays his enemies "You're already obsolete. You just don't know it yet." That's right. Your computers. Your tablets. Even those that you are going to buy next holiday season. All obsolete.

Why? Because the future is now 3DX Point memory. Memory 1000 times faster than the SSD that is making your current desktop fly at insane speeds at the moment, is like comparing a kids bobsled to an AA-Sidewinder missile. There will be a good 3 orders of magnitude difference. Check the figures. That's not hyperbole or an over-the-top exaggerated assertion. In fact, it's slightly underexaggerated: A bobsled could go a decent 20km/hr but multiplying that figure by 1000, you'd be hard pressed finding a sidewinder reaching 20,000km/hr folks. It is far, far slower.

So now, what does this new technology mean when it hits? Well, this is a filming and video blog... so the ramifications for film and video editing is ridiculous.

UTTERLY RIDICULOUS.

You would have, basically, instant video editing on any device with no frame drops. Granted, the technology doing things like frame blending, luma curves and other fancier effects would not directly benefit from this speed up, but they WOULD be faster still, due to a more aggressive memory model able to be deployed and not constrained to the mere few dozen gigabytes we now have in our "monster" video rigs.

Video files would open and stream effortlessly. 1080p, 4K, 8K, 16K. It matters not. The acquisition of the film itself digitally would be easily condensed from the lens to the sensor. No data movement issues here to secondary storage.

You can have your 4K 4:4:4 RAW and then some.

But alas, your digital phone or tablet may inherit such girth of memory and speed... but it would have to be connected to a car battery to function, right?

WRONG. The new 3DX Point memory uses, well, no power. That's right. The only time power surges through its veins is for reading or writing a bit of information. The actual storage and state maintenance (read: non-volatility) of the information simply remains, just like your hard drive or flash drive can sit on the table unplugged and still retain its information.

Well then - with terabytes of storage, you'd have to find extra space on your SmartPhones and tablets, right? Not really an issue, as 3DX Point memory is 10x denser than standard NAND memory. Not only that, but individual bits of data can be modified individually, as opposed to NAND which requires an entire block of data to be read, modified and rewritten. That means this thing is 10x smaller and sips the battery juice the likes of which we've never seen. Ever.

How does it feel to know that every single device you own is already vastly, severely, achingly obsolete? And that in a few short years, you will be throwing them into the garbage?
