From Punch Cards to 100TB SSDs: The Wild Evolution of Storage

What do punch cards, microfilm, floppy disks, and lightning-fast NVMe drives all have in common? They’re all part of the wild evolution of data storage. In this episode of Reality Reboot, we go way back—like cardboard-and-chisel back—and explore how storage technology evolved from 80-byte punch cards to modern drives capable of storing 100 terabytes at insane speeds. We break down how each technology works, how fast it was, and just how ridiculous the growth in storage has been over time. From magnetic tape and spinning hard drives to CDs, USB drives, and SSDs… this is the story of how we got from rooms full of data to something that fits in your pocket. 💾 Topics Covered: Punch cards and early computing Microfilm and microfiche archives Magnetic tape and early backups Hard drives and spinning platters Floppy disks (8", 5.25", 3.5") CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray USB flash drives SSD and NVMe technology 🤯 Fun fact: A modern drive can store the equivalent of billions of punch cards.
