Could you please share vision of these NVM technologies in more details?
What capacity in bytes of of one NVM unit do we can expect? What about
bad blocks and any other reliability issues of such NVM technologies?

I think that some more deep understanding of this can give possibility
to imagine more deeply possible niche of such NVM units in future memory
subsystem architecture.

With the best regards,
