In 1989 my first Avid drives were 600MB(yes megabytes) and were $5500 each.
The drives were more expensive than the Avid.

In 1991 my Osborne I computer only used SSSD floppies with 90 *KILO*
bytes per disk.
In 1983 I upgraded my Compaq I with the hot new 10 *MEGA* byte hard
drive for $550.
My first Avids in 1993 used 3 *GIGA* byte hard drives at about $3000 each.
Yesterday I bought a couple of 3 *TERA* byte external USB 3.0 drives
for $150 each.
Wow!
