It is just an "interesting" comparision. A
wall of RP06's is less than 0.5%
the capacity of a single IDE/ATA hard drive. You can now create tera-byre
arrays in a single 4u rack slot.
If you are going to compare yesterdays disk's with today's, you should
probably use IBM DASDs rather than the RP06. For many years IBM was the
big cheese in the disk world.
