    Doable but honestly a pretty awful idea. Remember that they share a data bus, and have a low write endurance. About all its good for (aside from toying around with a silly sort of fun idea) is as a high speed spot for temporary data.

    I set one up as a concept for temp storage of images being generated using a gaming engine that were being split and shoved out into multiple video streams. It worked, but there was no chance I’d rely on it (I even had a few of them die during the course of my goofing around).

    Also you’ve got bus limits to deal with, so there is a limit to just how useful it can be in the first place. And for longer term storage, you’ve got a lot of risk for finicky behavior. So yeah, just not worth it, but technically doable.
