    This picture was taken in 1956...

    Answer below.

    It's a hard disk drive back in 1956... With 5 MB of storage.

    1956 IBM launched the 305 RAMACIn September ,
    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 16 GB memory stick a little more now? My smart phone has 16 gigs of memory!!

    P.S. It would take 3200 of these units
    to equal the capacity of that little 16-Gig stick plugged
