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.
Floppy Disk (3.5", Hd)
A 3.5-inch high-density floppy disk is a magnetic storage medium used for data storage and transfer, typically holding up to 1.44 MB of data.
History/Origin
Introduced in the late 1980s, the 3.5-inch HD floppy disk became a standard for portable data storage, replacing earlier 5.25-inch disks. It was widely used until the rise of USB drives and cloud storage in the early 2000s.
Current Use
Modern usage of 3.5-inch HD floppy disks is virtually obsolete, limited to archival purposes, vintage computing, and collectors' items. They are rarely used in contemporary data storage solutions.
