Hard Disk Drives

HDD (Hard Disk Drives) also known as HD (Hard Drives) as we call it theses was invented back in 24th December 1954 by IBM.
It is called a Hard Disk Drive, due to it having a stiff disk or disks inside called Platters. It is coated with magnetic material and a magnetic head to writes data to the surface to be read from.

Back when i was involved with more of a technical side in computers. I remember pulling out an 80mb hard disk drive and 1mb of ram from a server. Quite funny since now days it is in gb.
