Peter Cohen has penned a fabulous \u00abHistory of Hard Drives\u00bb for BackBlaze. He walks us through the earliest days of mainframe-related storage to today’s SSDs, with lots of historic photos to illustrate the timeline. I love lore of all sorts\u2014particularly computer-related lore\u2014and I gobbled up this post. That said, \u00a0I don’t often link to company blog posts as a Cool Stuff Found, but\u00a0Peter talks about his employer very little\u2014the focus is the history. If you’re a nerd, it’s a great read.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":6652,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","tags":[],"class_list":["post-6651","cool-stuff-found","type-cool-stuff-found","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nPeter Cohen's 'A History of Hard Drives' - The Mac Observer<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Peter Cohen has penned a fabulous "History of Hard Drives" for BackBlaze.
