About these units
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.
DVD (2 layer, 2 side) (DVD (2L, 2S))
The dual-layer, double-sided DVD provides the maximum DVD capacity: 17.1 GB. With two layers on each side, these discs offered exceptional storage for large software packages, high-definition video masters (before Blu-ray), and professional archival applications. However, they were rarely used in consumer markets due to cost, complexity, and the inconvenience of double-sided handling. They remain an interesting pinnacle of DVD engineering—pushing the medium to its physical limits.
