About these units
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.
Exabit (Eb)
An exabit is 10¹⁸ bits, used in ultra-large-scale networking, such as intercontinental fiber systems, data-center connectivity, and internet backbone capacity projections. Although no single consumer device operates at this scale, network engineers and futurists use exabit terminology to describe the explosive growth of global internet traffic. The exabit embodies the shift toward planetary-scale communication infrastructures, reflecting humanity's increasing dependence on rapid, high-bandwidth connectivity.
