  • I just purchased a 28TB hard drive for $230. It would have taken 5.6 million of these IBM 350 units to equal that.

    To put it into perspective, that would be more than 2 football fields in height, width, and depth (725ft³). And buying all of those units would have cost $896 billion in 1956. Adjusted for inflation that’s $10.48 trillion.
