Floppy Disk (3.5", Ed)
A 3.5-inch floppy disk with Enhanced Density (ED) capacity used for data storage and transfer.
History/Origin
The 3.5-inch floppy disk was introduced in the late 1980s as a portable storage medium, replacing earlier 5.25-inch disks. Enhanced Density versions emerged in the 1990s to increase storage capacity, but the format was eventually phased out in favor of more modern storage solutions.
Current Use
The 3.5-inch floppy disk (ED) is largely obsolete, with minimal use today primarily for legacy systems, data recovery, or nostalgic purposes. It has been replaced by USB drives, external hard drives, and cloud storage.
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.
