    You can buy FRAM (Ferroelectric RAM) which are effectively the same thing just in smaller package. But I have seen them only about few kB. However the amount of R/W operations is effectively unlimited,

    With the current DRAM shortages, this couldn't have come at a better time.

    Dataram, back in the day, made 'generic' core memory planes. That is, the had a relatively speaking simple electrical interface, and many vendors just implemented whatever was needed to hook it up to the vendors (usually) proprietary interface.I have a couple I've been (very) slowly trying to get working with a modern-ish microcontroller with USB connectivity.

    Core64 has been selling a kit like this for some time:https://www.core64.io/buy(I chatted with them at the VCFMW, Vintage Computer Festival Mid-Waste, and they are very cool.)

    I have a little envelope of cores that I’ve been meaning to do something with for years, but they are just so tiny I haven’t wanted to mess with them. (Not sure when they were made, but I’m assuming fairly late based on the size.)

    I thought they meant bus width ...still impressed for entirely unexpected reasons.

    I doubt that this is the future. The future is to do calculations directly in the RAM.

    Neat! My Japanese is a bit rusty, how much memory is this?Wait, is each of the rings one bit?
