Exabyte (10^18 bytes) (EB (10^18))
A decimal exabyte equals exactly 1 quintillion bytes, and it is the standard for expressing large-scale cloud storage and global data production metrics. Industry analysts estimate that total global digital data now exceeds multiple decimal exabytes per year, driven by IoT devices, streaming services, AI workloads, and high-resolution media. The decimal exabyte serves as a measure of humanity's digital footprint, making it one of the most symbolic data units of the information age.
Zip 100 (Zip 100)
The Zip 100 drive stored 100 MB, offering a dramatic leap over floppy disk capacity. Released by Iomega in the mid-1990s, it became extremely popular for backups, graphics projects, and transporting large files. Graphic designers, office workers, and early multimedia users relied heavily on Zip drives during a period when hard drives were small and CDs were not yet convenient for rewritable storage. Zip disks represented an era of transitional storage—but also gained notoriety for the infamous "click of death," a mechanical failure that could render disks unreadable. Despite this, Zip drives were a defining feature of 1990s computing.
