About these units
Terabyte (TB)
A terabyte equals 1,099,511,627,776 bytes (2⁴⁰) in binary or 1 trillion bytes in decimal. Terabytes are associated with large-scale data storage: cloud drives, archival systems, scientific datasets, game installations, and high-definition video libraries. Modern personal computers often include terabyte-level drives, and enterprise systems may contain thousands of terabytes. The TB marks the boundary where storage becomes "big data," enabling machine learning training sets, genomic databases, and detailed satellite imagery archives. At this scale, efficient data management, compression, and redundancy become critical challenges.
Zip 250 (Zip 250)
The Zip 250 increased capacity to 250 MB, improving on the Zip 100 line while retaining backward compatibility. It served as a bridge to larger removable storage formats and remained popular until USB flash drives took over the portable storage market. Designers, schools, and offices used Zip 250 disks for medium-sized multimedia projects, backups, and file transfers. Its existence illustrates the rapid pace of storage innovation—and how even seemingly large capacities were quickly eclipsed.
