You're confusing the 3330 with the 3340: the latter was the
Winchester, the first disk with an HDA. The 3330 was the old-style
disk pack in a cheese bell. A variant (apparently not from IBM; CDC
maybe?) of the same disk pack stored 300 MB, and we used a lot of them
at Tandem in the 1970s and early 1980s. I suppose they were pretty
widespread.
