I once speculated to a friend about 15 years ago that eventually solid state
storage space would be so fast that it could serve as active memory. I can’t
wait to tell him.
It would have to be always active, checking for radiation induced flips, not just powered off.
My initial thought was that everything would be stored in triplicate, then read in triplicate and ‘voted’ to the correct value, but I guess even that only extends the time before random bit-flips make the data unreadable. You’re probably right on the need for active error checking if there is an intention to store anything long-term in this manner.
