  Thin-film inductive heads
The earliest IBM inductive single-turn [18] and multi-turn [13] heads were made with plated copper recording gaps, and it was soon recognized that a more durable gap material was desirable.
Epoxy bonding could have been used, but manufacturing experience with epoxy bonding, particularly with the IBM 2314 head [20], had shown such bonds to be subject to slippage, causing displacement of the heads with respect to the air bearing.
IBM introduced the first inductive thin-film head in the disk drive industry with the shipment of the IBM Model 3370 DASD in 1979.

With the IBM 2314, you can call up any record for processing in milliseconds - a necessity for applications requiring frequent access to large quantities of stored data.
The IBM 2314 utilizes a storage control similar to that which maximizes the functional capabilities of the 2311 and the 2321 Data Cell Drive.
The IBM 2314 can be the economical solution to your need for fast, direct access to large volumes of information on either a sequential or random basis.

 IBM Archives: IBM 2314 direct access storage facility   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Announced one year after the System/360 in April 1965, the IBM 2314 provided eight disk drives and a spare along with a control unit together in one facility.
The access time and latency of the 2314 was the same as the older IBM 2311 but the 2314 offered double the data rate of 310,000 bytes per second.
The 2314 DASF-B Series was made up of an IBM 2314 storage control model B1 and combinations of IBM 2319 disk storage models B1 and B2.

 Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Early IBM disk storage
A major advance over the IBM 350 and IBM 1405 was the use of a separate arm and head for each recording surface, with all the arms moving in and out together like a big comb.
The 2314 stored 29.2 million characters on a single removable IBM 2316 disk pack which was similar in design to the 1316 but was taller as a result of increasing the number of disks from six to eleven.
The IBM 3330 DASD was the first IBM disk drive to use voice coil motor technology to position the read/write heads over the tracks of data.

 TVTechnology - Media Server Technology
The earliest method for storing data employed cylindrical drums, whereby magnetic patterns were deposited and then recovered by a device that would later become the magnetic "head." In the first generation disk drives, the heads actually contacted the surface, severely limiting the life of a disk drive.
IBM engineers later floated the head above the magnetic surface, a fundamental principle that would become the mainstay methodology of the magnetic disk recording technology even through today.
The IBM Winchester drive, introduced in 1973, bore the internal project name of the 30-30 Winchester rifle and employed the first sealed internal mechanics.

The IBM 360 design assumed an interrupt-driven operating system, that utilized the contents of different control registers in response to an interrupt.
The 2314 was an important new storage device introduced with the S/360.
The IBM 3420 tape drives were used to store information from the MICR check reader/sorter, which read the information at the bottom of your check (which is printed with special magnetic-type ink) and wrote the info to the tape drive.

 IBM Antitrust Suit Records1950-1982   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
IBM's success, particularly with their System/360, was a cause for distrust and suspicion by both their competitors and the federal government.
IBM was filed in U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York on January 17, 1969 by the Justice Department.
The government contended that IBM planned to and did eliminate emerging competition that threatened the erosion of IBM's monopoly power by devising and executing business strategies which were not illegal, but which did not provide users with a better price, a better product or better service.
