Dvd (1 Layer, 2 Side)
A DVD (1 layer, 2 sides) is a digital optical disc storage format capable of storing approximately 4.7 GB of data per side, used for data storage, video playback, and software distribution.
History/Origin
The DVD was developed in the mid-1990s as a successor to CDs, with the first commercial DVDs introduced in 1996. It became widely adopted for video and data storage, replacing VHS tapes and CDs in many applications.
Current Use

Petabit
A petabit (Pb) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^15 bits or 1,000,000,000,000,000 bits.
History/Origin
The petabit was introduced as part of the binary and decimal prefixes for large data quantities, reflecting the increasing need for larger units in data storage and transfer, especially during the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Petabits are primarily used in the context of large-scale data storage, data transfer rates, and network bandwidth measurements, particularly in data centers, internet infrastructure, and high-capacity storage systems.
