Dvd (2 Layer, 2 Side)
A DVD (2 layer, 2 side) is a digital optical disc storage format capable of storing approximately 8.5 GB of data, with two layers on each side for increased capacity.
History/Origin
The DVD format was developed in the mid-1990s as a successor to the CD, introducing higher storage capacity and improved data transfer rates. The 2-layer, 2-side version was introduced to further enhance storage capabilities, becoming widely adopted in the early 2000s for data storage and multimedia applications.
Current Use
Today, DVDs are primarily used for media playback, data archiving, and distribution of movies and software, although their usage has declined with the rise of digital downloads and streaming services.
Petabyte (10^15 Bytes)
A petabyte (PB) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^15 bytes or 1,000,000,000,000,000 bytes.
History/Origin
The petabyte was introduced as part of the binary and decimal prefixes for large data storage units, gaining prominence with the growth of big data and large-scale data centers in the early 21st century.
Current Use
Petabytes are used to measure large-scale data storage capacities in data centers, cloud storage services, and enterprise data management systems.
