>I don't know why flash shouldn't be able to win at price/capacity, longevity, total capacity, robustness, performance, etc
yes, you dont, and this is why you think this:
>But flash will have higher performance and higher capacity
longevity, robustness, endurance, it all goes down with every new generation of flash. Performance at silicon level is already as good as it gets, we only win by making wider busses and assessing more data in parallel.
Price per gigabyte comes at a price (haha) or endurance. Speed comes at a price of more chips per disk (or more wafers/structures inside chips) = money.
Want that sweet new 1TB PCIE SSD able to write at 2GB/s? it will shit itself after ~24hours of continuous write.
There is no free lunch with SSDs, they are a dead alley.
