About these units
Floppy Disk (3.5", HD) (floppy (3.5" HD))
The 3.5-inch High Density (HD) floppy stored 1.44 MB, becoming one of the most iconic storage formats of the 1990s. HD floppies were ubiquitous—used for school assignments, office documents, driver disks, BIOS updates, and even early game installations. Their capacity was sufficient for word processing files, spreadsheets, and modest multimedia content of the era. Although minuscule by modern standards, the HD floppy revolutionized everyday computing by offering a cheap, standardized, nearly universal storage medium. Its influence persisted until USB drives and CDs supplanted it in the early 2000s.
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.
