New tech offers up to 10TB Solid state drives in our future. Sweet.

Of course not! But would be cool if we could!

PS In another lifetime, I was studying how to make such 3D chips. Amazing that's it's taken this long to go from the academic lab to the market.

well... technically a chip fab is nothing more than a honking big complicated 3D 'printer'. But the processes of masking and laying down layers is a bit more complicated than a nozzle spewing plastic.

So that's when Apple will offer 1TB on their MacBooks!

Apple needs to adopt a standard size SSD like the M.2.
