> What is a "NVRAM" based SSD? 

It is simply an SSD (Solid State Drive) which does not use Flash, 
but does use power protected (non-volatile) DRAM, as the primary 
storage media.

I consider the DDRdrive X1 to be a NVRAM based SSD even 
though we delineate the storage media used depending on host 
power condition.  The X1 exclusively uses DRAM for all IO 
processing (host is on) and then Flash for permanent non-volatility 
(host is off).
