I worked on this drive. It's a 3.5 drive. A long time ago. Time for my daily nap and Centrum shot.

Wait in line, and give me back those 8" floppies that you borrowed.

Seriously though: the amount of miniaturization in storage is something I'll never get used to. From punch cards and papertape via cassette to floppies, harddrives (in various incarnations and densities) and now to solid state so compact that you could store all of the data that I've created in my whole life in something about the size of your smallest fingernail. Incredible.
