Well poo. If that’s old , my stuff is ancient. I would still run that drive, heck, I still have drives labeled in megabytes. I’ve thinned the herd a bit, regret selling an original Mac 512k with all the add ones a few years back. Still worked. Sat my son on it, loaded the MacPaint floppy , gave him no instruction. He played for 15, made paintings for a couple hours, and knew every tool by the end. Not a bad way to start into learning computers. Diving into photshop now as a young person is daunting.

It's not old...it's just a piece of computing history, something that filled a need for ultra-fast access drives before SSDs became the norm.

They appeared and then vanished. You can still buy spinning rust, just not like this in a consumer form.
