About these units
Bit (b)
A bit is the most fundamental unit of digital information, representing a binary value of 0 or 1. In physical systems, a bit corresponds to two distinguishable states—such as high/low voltage, magnetic polarity, or light/dark in optical systems. Bits form the basis of all digital computation: CPUs manipulate bits through logic gates, memory stores bits in capacitors or magnetic cells, and communication networks transmit bits as electrical pulses or photons. Although extremely small in size, bits accumulate into vast structures—from kilobytes of text to petabytes of cloud storage. Every digital phenomenon—files, images, videos, software—ultimately reduces to sequences of bits. The bit is the "atom" of information.
Jaz 2GB (Jaz 2GB)
The Jaz 2GB doubled the capacity of the original Jaz drive, offering significant storage for video, audio, and engineering applications. It appealed to professional users pushing the limits of late-1990s computing—desktop publishing houses, video editors, and 3D modelers. Despite its innovation, the Jaz 2GB was ultimately overtaken by more reliable, cheaper technologies such as CDs, DVDs, and eventually USB flash drives. Jaz drives occupy a unique place in storage history as powerful but short-lived solutions.
