I. B. M. had invented a disk storage unit that was very large but did not store a lot of data. It was twenty-four inches in diameter and could hold only five megabytes‚ which is the equivalent to three and one half floppy disks. Originally called “fixed disks” later became known as “hard disks” opposed to floppy disks. In 1973‚ I. B. M. released a hard drive that could hold seventeen and one half megabytes. In 1980 Seagate made the first five and one quarter inch hard disk. In the late 1980’s‚ three

INPUT DEVICES Barcode reader A barcode reader (or barcode scanner) is an electronic device for reading printed barcodes. Like a flatbed scanner‚ it consists of a light source‚ a lens and a light sensor translating optical impulses into electrical ones. Additionally‚ nearly all barcode readers contain decoder circuitry analyzing the barcode’s image data provided by the sensor and sending the barcode’s content to the scanner’s output port.
