Does anyone know what the bit read failure rate is on SSD, especially
when the disk is used in an OLTP environment? Assuming non-DRAM SSD.

SSD is a great idea and waiting for more devices/OS support with "wear
leveling" and dynamic bad-sector/cell reallocation.

No need to redesign the chip. What Woz and company are doing is
effectively solid state disks. Even Fusion-io's impressive numbers are
still slower than memory, it's just that they are a hell of a lot faster
than disk, and almost as large. Now, would I like to see SSD on i, sure!
