About these units
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.
Floppy Disk (3.5", ED) (floppy (3.5" ED))
The 3.5-inch Extended Density (ED) floppy disk increased storage to 2.88 MB, nearly double the HD version. Despite the additional capacity, ED disks never achieved widespread use. They required compatible drives, were more expensive, and emerged during a period when optical and magnetic storage technologies were advancing rapidly. Their brief existence reflects an inflection point in storage history—where incremental magnetic improvements could no longer keep pace with the exponential growth in software size and consumer demand.
