Has anyone heard of a pc with-out a hard drive?
Is it not true the hard drive is where the bottle neck effect is taking place on the pc.
After all the Hard drive is the only component that is a mechanicle part of the pc. Everything else is chip sets moving data info. nothing physical is moving like the hard drive is.
I am waiting for the day, we all have pc's that don't have a hard drive. All the information about the pc, installed programs etc.. is all stored on chips like ROM or RAM.
That would make it faster in booting and running apps. During boot-up that's what you see on the screen is the hard drive loading everything & the pc is waiting for the data. Wouldn't be nice to turn your pc on like a tv & there it is. BANG........

This should meet your needs...

As can be seen at the Techworld article, anything can be had for a price. The big problem comes when a system is shut down. Since RAM needs constant power, you can't shut it down. Granted the gvt. nevers shuts down their servers, but home users usually do. That's why we have hard drives; it stores the programs until it's written to memory. You could make a RAM drive but you better hope you never lose power. What you could do, if you have enough memory, is make a RAM drive in your system memory and load your big programs into it. (I remember doing this in the days of the 386). But you still need a hard drive to store the actual programs if you plan on turning off you system.
