Thirty years ago, back in 1983, the biggest hard drives stored
about 10MB of data. That’s barely enough to store two or three
.mp3 tracks. Now, a typical notebook has one terabyte of storage
or nearly 100,000 times more but even this is figure is
laughable when you consider how much data we’re generating.
According to IBM, every day we’re creating 2.5 quintillion bytes
of data and 90% of today’s digital data was created in the last
two years.
