The first hard drive I used was 15M. LOL

Thought there was no way it could ever be filled up.

A guy in the next office over got an IBM XT with a 20mg hard drive back in the day and the rest of us were cruising along using dual floppies.

I couldn’t understand why he’d want storage space that would take 10 years to fill up at the normal work load.
