Price of 1 gigabyte over time →

Daniel Parker:

Price of 1 gigabyte of storage over time:
1981 $300,000
1987 $50,000
1990 $10,000
1994 $1,000
1997 $100
2000 $10
2004 $1
2012 $0.10

Without these price drops technology would not improve that much. In 2000 the storage of an iPad Mini would have costed $160. That’s half of what an iPad costs.
