5 MB HDD weighing over a ton
via thenextweb.com
The IBM 305 RAMAC computer from 1956 was the first commercial computer using a HDD as a secondary storage device, instead of punch cards.
Known as the IBM 350 disk storage unit, the system stored 5 MB of data and weighed over a ton. Like every super computer from those days, it wasn't exactly portable, requiring forklifts to be transported around.
As you can see on the picture, it was delivered by cargo planes.
