Almost solid state hard disk, shifts hard disk platter tech from spinning, to a translating platter, then upping the number of read/write heads since they are fixed and can be arranged in a large array. Kinky, using piezoelectric linear actuation. Certainly has the potential for much higher read/write speed since you are using an array of heads. The only problem is the relative lifetime of the platter and actuators, and what kind of wear would you experience?
