I recall IT people losing their minds when we hit the 1TB

1TB? I remember when my first computer had a state of the art 200MB hard drive.

I remember first hearing about 1TB and thinking (who needs that much storage?) wasn't an IT person then just a regular nerd but am now and it took me a while to ever fill up my first 1TB HDD (steam folder) now I have a 2TB NVME in my desktop and a 4TB NVME in my server (for my Linux ISOs ;))

Remembering when Zip drives sounded so big!
