Heya Dan...
Still remember my first hard drive (for a kind of machine that shall
remain unidentified!!!)... t'was a whopping =5= megabytes. Full
height, 5.25" MFM Seagate. Setup was done by calling ROM code on the
controller card. This was about '83 and the critter cost a tad over
$300... used!
A glorious thing it was... till my first attempted backup. 'Bout
halfway into the 10th 360kb floppy disk, I thought "Screw THIS!"
Heh, even today with a 40GB DLT tape drive, backups are few and far
between. My B&W has access to about 750GB and I haven't a clue where
to start. Isn't technology wonderful?
