Yes they have. I spotted this while at Bletchly Park. For the larger disk ... 4MB/side 100-410mS access 52-157k bytes per sec transfer time. Mark

HaHa yes you could think that without knowing the context.

To be fair these are the raw component so obviously you wouldn't see them like this normally (much like you never see the internals of a modern hard drive)

I did but never got a photo.

It may have been the way they were displayed ...behind shiny glass surfaces never photo well....
