About these units
Jaz 2GB (Jaz 2GB)
The Jaz 2GB doubled the capacity of the original Jaz drive, offering significant storage for video, audio, and engineering applications. It appealed to professional users pushing the limits of late-1990s computing—desktop publishing houses, video editors, and 3D modelers. Despite its innovation, the Jaz 2GB was ultimately overtaken by more reliable, cheaper technologies such as CDs, DVDs, and eventually USB flash drives. Jaz drives occupy a unique place in storage history as powerful but short-lived solutions.
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.
