Nine little gigabytes, holding just the date, someone jammed a write

Eight little gigabytes, should have been eleven, then they cut the
budget, now there are seven.
Seven little gigabytes, involved in doing math tricks, one stored a
large even prime, now there are six.
Six little gigabytes, working like a hive, one died of overwork, now
there are five.
Five little gigabytes, trying to add more  plugged in the wrong lead,
now there are four.
Four little gigabytes, failing frequently, one used for spare parts,
now there are three.
Three little gigabytes, have too much to do, service man’s on holiday,
now there are two.
Two little gigabytes, badly overrun, took the work elsewhere, now just
need one.
One little gigabyte, systems far too small, shut the whole thing down,
