Interesting tech for hard drives

3 layers for a hard drive, 3 bits = a byte (yeah, 8 bits from 3) Pretty
cool.

If we loaded every slot on our server that would give us 2400TB or 2.4PB. Holy Shit!

I'm wondering what impact this will have on the SSD market. It has to
introduce another level of breakage. If one layer goes bad, how to
recover it? I do love the premise, though.
