I don't even have a solid-state drive yet! by Anonymous Coward · 2015-11-02 22:50 · Score: 2, Funny

My my how technology continues to march on. I haven't even upgraded any of my systems to the new-fangled solid-state drives. Is this new EM drive going to have a higher storage capacity or are they just faster?
