so at my intership today we had nothing to do. so we started to going through old technolgy. we found a box full of old floppy drives and decided to raid them. we spend most of the day making it work but eventually got a 13 disk striped floppy disk array working with a whopping 17 megs of storage space. we documented the whole thing and posted it on a website for fun. eventually there will be a smaller video but we did not have quick access to software to compress the video. i will do that tonight sometime and then reupload it.

Edit: i did not make the webpage so i did not notice this till now, but the pictures are like 2 megs a piece...i am resizing them right now
 
<thinking back to when I had multiple programs on one floppy>
