Some factors to consider:
1. Optane (and other non-volatile memory) DIMMs
2. Optane NVMe (most likely MLC based*) ---> https://www.anandtech.com/show/1120...-dive-into-3d-xpoint-enterprise-performance/2
*Especially if future generations of Optane lower latency therefore making the multi-bit per cell Optane of the future equal in latency to the SLC Optane of today.
3. Yangtze Memory Xtacking NAND (high throughput per GB) ---> http://www.ymtc.com/index.php?s=/cms/172.html
4. Samsung Z-NAND --> https://www.anandtech.com/show/1170...summit-96layer-vnand-mlc-znand-new-interfaces
5. Toshiba low latency NAND (pretty interesting stuff---> https://www.anandtech.com/show/13183/toshiba-announces-xlflash-lowlatency-3d-nand )
6. Segate Multi-actuator SAS hard drives (spinning at low rpm with a high actuator count. Also potentially with Dual Pillar)

3D XPoint is currently storing just one bit per memory cell while today's NAND flash is mostly storing two or three bits per cell. Intel has indicated that the technology they are using, with sufficient R&D, can support more bits per cell to help raise density.

“At present, the world’s highest 3D NAND I/O speed is targeting 1.4Gbps while the majority of the industry is offering NAND I/O at 1.0Gbps or below. With our XtackingTM technology, it is possible for NAND I/O speed to reach up to 3.0Gbps, similar to I/O speed of DRAM DDR4. This is going to be a game changer in the NAND industry,” said Simon Yang, CEO at YMTC.
