Guess what This Is?

Hint: picture was  taken in 1956...

It's a hard disk drive  back then 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.

Now can you appreciate your $20, 8 GB, memory stick?
