I distinctly remember getting a new computer with a 40 meg drive, and the salesman telling my dad that its more space than we will ever need. I think it was only 2 years later that DooM came out, and it was 16 megs fully installed.

My first HD was a Rodime 10MB, but because I used an interface card that used RLL encoding I got even 5 MB more !!!
It was brilliant ! :)
This card was a regular OMTI Controller PC card but hooked up to the "SCSI" port on my Atari ST through a PCB sold by a German ST magazine.
Gotta love those days....
