The History Of Digital Storage



An infographic loaded with information on the history of digital storage shows how digital storage has evolved in the last decade or so. However, It should be made clear that storage of data didn’t start recently, it all begun in 1725 with the invention of Punch Cards and since then it has improved gradually. Not only has the size reduced, but also the price has reduced a lot. For example:  4.4MB hard drive would cost you $3,200 a month in 1956 whereas a 3TB hard drive will now cost you only $119 just once.

Take a look at the infographic that shows the history of digital storage and compares the sizes, speed and capacity over the time.
