The difference is 59 years and Moore's law. Specifically the size of transistors getting much much much smaller.

Also the old drives were spinning disks (that's why they got the name "drives") and recorded information on a magnetic surface, it needed motors and everything. That 128G pen drive is just a chip or two, no moving parts at all.
Back in 1957, 5MB would have be considered a huge amount of storage.
Comparing 1957 to 2017 the drive will be considered has about 128Gb
It would have been considered probably more like a Petabyte. I'm sure it was one of the largest drives made at the time.
