Iomega Zip drives— still impressed with the choice of making the drives blue. The showstopper though, was my dad’s wood modem—I don’t remember if it was plastic or real, but it was purchased from a national retailer—not homemade and way cooler than the slate of white 56k US Robotics modems that followed!
the tape drives... 250+ MB years before iomega came along
