Burying CPUs in Storage Drives Is a Distant Vapourware Fantasy
Silicon startups keep peddling distant architectural miracles to enterprise buyers who need computational efficiency before their budgets burn out.
Promising to eliminate the host CPU bottleneck by burying the file system inside solid-state drives sounds visionary until you spot the 2027 delivery date. In enterprise AI, a three-year roadmap is effectively science fiction designed to stall hardware buyers. Compute is obviously migrating directly onto storage silicon, but vapid roadmaps cannot solve today's crushing data centre power bills. Are you building an operational infrastructure strategy, or just funding someone else’s speculative research laboratory?
Decentralised hardware architectures naturally take years to standardise and tape out. If FADU successfully eliminates the CPU bottleneck, enterprise AI infrastructure costs will plummet permanently.
- ·Silicon roadmaps promising 2027 delivery usually mask present-day commercial irrelevance.
- ·Bypassing host CPUs exposes edge infrastructure to unvetted firmware vulnerabilities.
- ·Compute moving into NAND flash signals the inevitable end of centralised servers.
