RAM can serve up data in memory 1000 times faster than a NVMe drive
Also RAM doesn't have a limited number of lifetime writes.
Yes, I get that. But I'm really wondering why that is? If memory is digital, and storage is digital, why not develop a RAM-less architecture? Why not have a storage bus with the same throughput as memory does currently? Is it just because of the cost of the chips?
