Guess What This Is?
Hint: The picture was taken in 1956.
Answer below...
It's a hard disk drive back in 1956... With 5 MB of storage.
In September 1956, IBM launched the 305 RAMAC,
The first 'SUPER' computer with a hard disk drive (HDD).
The HDD weighed over a ton and stored a 'whopping' 5 MB of data.
Do you appreciate your 32 GB memory stick a little more now?
