  Drum memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Drum memory was an early form of computer memory that was widely used in the 1950s and into the 1960s.
Drums were later replaced by core memory, which was faster and had no moving parts, and which lasted until semiconductor memory entered the scene.
A drum is a large metal cylinder that is coated on the outside surface with a ferromagnetic recording material.

Magnetic drums were once used as a primary storage device but have since been implemented as auxiliary storage devices.
The tracks on a magnetic drum are assigned to channels located around the circumference of the drum, forming adjacent circular bands that wind around the drum.
Magnetic drums are able to retrieve data at a quicker rate than tape or disk devices but are not able to store as much data as either of them.

 Magnetic drum separator technical and maintenance information from IMS Magnetic Mining
Magnetic separation is used for the concentration of minerals and for the removal of suspended magnetisable particles in a fluid.
The capacity of a magnet to lift a mineral is not only dependant on the field intensity but on the field gradient ie the rate at which the field intensity increases towards the magnet surface.
All magnetic separators are designed to provide a magnetic field gradient, either in the gap between the poles of a magnetic circuit or in the air space near the magnetised surface such as that of a permanent magnet.

 Manchester Drums
The role of this first drum built wholly in the department came to an end with the delivery of a beautifully machined replica built by Ferranti for the further development of the recording heads and experimentation with the magnetic surfaces.
The depth of the drum of 2'' was governed by the need to achieve sufficiently small clearance between the recording heads and the recording surface over its full extent.
It was through use of these components that by October of 1949 the Manchester Mark1 had access to two magnetic drums each with 32 tracks (two blocks of 16 heads per drum) providing an effective intermediate store of 128 pages, 16 times the capacity of the random access CRT store of eight pages.
