CAN YOU GUESS WHAT THIS IS?

    Hint: picture was taken in 1956 . . .



    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 8 GB memory stick a little more now?
