Well there's still HAMR and shingled recording to come, the latter being a pretty desperate and backwards move IMO.
SSDs on the other hand, I've had too many fail disastrously to put any trust in them anymore, it seems they're yet to figure out how to design them with any sort of sensible failure mode.
Plus, aren't we already nearing the limits of process shrinking and write endurance on stupidly tiny 12nm or so NANDs as well?
