Exabit
An exabit (Eb) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^18 bits or 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 bits.
History/Origin
The exabit was introduced as part of the binary prefix system to represent large data quantities, aligning with the International System of Units (SI) prefixes, and gained recognition with the increasing need for measuring massive data storage and transfer capacities in the digital age.
Current Use
Exabits are primarily used in contexts involving extremely large data storage capacities, high-speed data transfer rates, and global data infrastructure metrics, especially in data centers, cloud storage, and internet backbone measurements.
Floppy Disk (3.5", Dd)
A 3.5-inch double-density floppy disk is a magnetic storage medium used for data storage and transfer, characterized by its 3.5-inch physical size and double-density recording capacity.
History/Origin
Introduced in the late 1980s, the 3.5-inch double-density floppy disk became a popular data storage medium due to its compact size and improved capacity over earlier floppy disks. It was widely used throughout the 1990s and early 2000s before being phased out by more advanced storage technologies.
Current Use
Today, the 3.5-inch double-density floppy disk is largely obsolete, with minimal use primarily in legacy systems, data recovery, or nostalgic collections. Modern data storage relies on USB drives, external hard drives, and cloud storage solutions.
