He mentions Fusion-io drives getting faster. What's interesting about iodrives is that you don't have to buy a new one to get more speed, just updating your CPU or RAM will speed up an iodrive:
"Because VSL leverages powerful host CPU cores and memory for block mapping, ioMemory performance automatically improves as organizations upgrade host CPUs or memory" (http://www.fusionio.com/overviews/vsl-technical-overview/ http://www.fusionio.com/overviews/vsl-technical-overview/)
VSL (Virtual Storage Layer) is the Fusion-io software that makes an iodrive look like a block device to the OS, among other things.
