Which outcome is unavoidable when manufacturing solid-state drives due to quantum mechanics?

💡 Explanation

Electron tunneling inevitably corrupts adjacent memory cells in solid-state drives because electrons have a probability to tunnel through insulators. Therefore, data errors increase, rather than other electrical degradation mechanisms affecting drive life under normal conditions.
