In ten years it'll be the size of the on/off button.

First 1gb hard drive next to what replaced it.

That’s a IBM 3380-J spindle/HDA , 1.26gb ... a string of 2 AJ’s and 14 BJ’s would be about $750,000.00 plus the 3880 controller...

Aww yes. An old IBM 3380 disk drive. I’ve replaced my share of them over the years.
