I remember I bought a 4.7GB Seagate hard drive, for $250, at 1997.

I remember my Dad buying a 20MB drive in 1993 for around double that..

I started a company, Corvus Systems, that sold 5 MByte hard disk drives for $4000. We sold a zillion.

Of course the competition was 74 KByte floppies at the time.

At the time I copied games for ZX-80 on a tape recorder. One 90 min cassette had 260KB of storage. And now IBM make a 330TB one.

Back in my day we only had stone tablets which had space for just one dot. A whopping 1 bit of storage! /s
