It is so big that you can see files with your bare eye.

BS.

The IBM 3370 and 3375s were about the largest HDs you could possibly get in the 1970s, at 571mb until the 3380 (in 1981) at 1.25/2.5gb, and they were something like 500lbs.

Yeah, a quick Google suggests it should read 1980s not 1970s.

Actually I toured one of IBM's data centers back in the 70's and I remember hard drives that were about the size of an oil drum... (and I bet they didn't store as much as the one pictured here)
