    1gb :/ Not really one I used, but found in the garage. The earliest I used was about 160gb.

    please, you call 40 gig 'old days'?
    My first computer (not PC), no hard drive at all. WE did all the work, forget this Windows drag and drop, mousy cat thing ... If you wanted it done, you did it yourself, saved it on cassette (if you were lucky)!

    yes, started out with cassettes as well on the ZX Spectrum. Also remember spending lots of time typing in complete games in BASIC from books and magazines. Fairly quickly after that came the Commodore 64 with 1541 floppy drive, Atari ST (though I really wanted an Amiga) and finally PC.

    1.6 Gb if I recall correctly, from a Compaq Presario 4112 Desktop with Windows 95.
    Nothing here right now.

    My first PC in 1999 came with a 3.2GB Maxtor ATA33 running Windows 98. It would still boot into 98 the last time I tried it in '04 or '05 but I had newer hardware and was running Windows 2K and that little drive was useless by then so I tossed it.

    Believe it or not I was pretty lucky back in the day and was able to get my hands on a higher end laptop from gateway with an 80gb hard drive

    I remember my first 40MB MFM disk, greatest thing I'd set eyes on, back when it was MFM or RLE, not SATA or SAS...
