The floppy disk was a revolution in the computer industry when it was developed by IBM in the late 1960s as a reliable and inexpensive method of loading microcode into their System/370 computer.
From this project came the first 8-inch floppy disk. Shugart left IBM and worked at Memorex for a short time before founding Shugart Associates, where he developed the 5-1/4 inch floppy disk. He continued to contribute to the disk drive industry throughout his career, and in 1997, he received the IEEE Reynold B. Johnson Information Storage Systems Award.
