Baa RAM Ewe?
Suppose you had a terrific method of providing huge storage capacity, but the price was too inhibitive for it to get off the ground. Such was the problem with Magnetic RAM (MRAM), which uses magnetic fields that use a lot less energy than electric charges to store data, and is consistently faster when it comes to accessing data. The cost, however, was killing the technology before it had a chance to see the light of day.

Not anymore. Enter a partnership between IBM and TDK designed to bring MRAM technology to your data center. But will it be enough to bring folks on board? Will the price really decrease as these two technology giants join forces? Barry Levine writes an excellent overview on Data Storage Today's web site. Give it a read and let me know what you think.
