About these units
DVD (1 layer, 2 side) (DVD (1L, 2S))
A single-layer, double-sided DVD offers 9.4 GB, with 4.7 GB per side, requiring the user to physically flip the disc. Double-sided DVDs were ideal in early DVD-era box sets and archival applications, but their inconvenience—no label side, no artwork, and manual flipping—limited consumer adoption. They represent a transitional form of optical media designed to increase capacity before dual-layer technologies became mainstream.
Jaz 1GB (Jaz 1GB)
Iomega's Jaz 1GB drive provided 1 gigabyte of removable storage, making it a high-end solution for professionals in multimedia, CAD, and video editing during the late 1990s. Unlike Zip disks, Jaz cartridges contained hard-disk platters, offering dramatically higher performance and capacity. Jaz drives were essential for users who needed to transport multi-hundred-megabyte project files—something impossible with floppies or Zip 100 disks. However, Jaz drives were expensive and prone to hardware failures, limiting their adoption. They represent early attempts to scale removable storage before the solid-state era.
