A bit doubtful, IMO. Where are the RAM chips that support that density, not even speaking of NVRam chips?

The article says that this new format supports up to 2TB.  I suspect that's similar to the way that NTFS supports however many millions (or something like that, not sure of the exact number) of TB.
Open source RTS.  It's still in the very early stages, so testers are quite welcome.

How can they have 2TB memory cards when there are't even HDDs or other storage devices that have that capacity?

2TB Addressable, 120MB maximum bandwidth.

This is the specs for the interface, not the actual memory being accessed.


This is similar to 48-bit LBA IDE being able to support up to 144 Petabytes.
