Exabyte
An exabyte (EB) is a unit of digital information equal to one quintillion bytes (10^18 bytes).
History/Origin
The exabyte was introduced as data storage capacities increased, serving as a large-scale unit to measure vast amounts of data, especially in data centers and cloud storage, during the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Exabytes are used to quantify large-scale data storage and transfer, such as global internet traffic, data centers, and cloud storage capacities in modern digital infrastructure.
Floppy Disk (5.25", Dd)
A 5.25-inch double-density floppy disk is a magnetic storage medium used for data storage and transfer in computers, typically holding up to 1.2 MB of data.
History/Origin
Introduced in the late 1970s, the 5.25-inch floppy disk became widely popular in the 1980s as a portable storage medium before being phased out in favor of higher-capacity and more durable storage solutions in the 1990s.
Current Use
Today, the 5.25-inch floppy disk is obsolete, with minimal use primarily in archival or legacy systems; it is mostly of historical interest and collector's value.
