Yes. Flash RAM based HDs. eg.

Very expensive, but very very fast.


Uh, note the write rate--14 to 110. With no moving parts it should be one
or the other, not a range.

Be careful with flash--don't assume that it's faster than rotating
magnetic--one of the big selling points for the IBM microdrive is that it's
faster than the solid state equivalents.
