What I wonder is if there would still be a way to interface with existing technology, or if everything would have to be redesigned. Obviously, us empeg owners would love to have some way to connect to these new storage devices via the existing EIDE cables.

The article didn't mention anything about speed. This high level of compression is impressive, but how fast does it decompress? We discussed a technology a while back that basically created 3D storage space (ie: 100 layers in the dimensions of a CD), and claimed to maintain current speeds, and faster.

Nonetheless, I can't wait for the future!
