The document discusses the first computer with a hard disk drive launched by IBM in 1956, called the 305 RAMAC. The hard disk drive weighed over a ton but only stored 5 MB of data, showing how data storage has increased dramatically over time, as a modern USB drive can store thousands of times more data while weighing very little in comparison.
