About these units
CD (80 minute) (CD (80 min))
The 80-minute CD expanded storage to 700 MB, offering a modest but meaningful increase over the 74-minute version. This capacity became the industry standard for audio production, software, and media distribution. The slightly denser data-spacing required careful calibration but proved reliable for most computer and consumer hardware. For many users, CD-R and CD-RW discs became a primary means of personal backups, music burning, and long-term storage before USB drives became widespread.
DVD (1 layer, 1 side) (DVD (1L, 1S))
A single-layer, single-sided DVD stores 4.7 GB, a massive leap from CD capacity. DVD technology enabled the transition from VHS tapes to digital video, offering superior clarity, durability, and bonus features. Beyond video, DVDs supported data archiving, software distribution, and game installation. The 4.7 GB DVD became a cornerstone of home entertainment, education, and computing, serving as a universal medium for nearly a decade before Blu-ray and online streaming began to replace physical media.
