About these units
Floppy Disk (3.5", ED) (floppy (3.5" ED))
The 3.5-inch Extended Density (ED) floppy disk increased storage to 2.88 MB, nearly double the HD version. Despite the additional capacity, ED disks never achieved widespread use. They required compatible drives, were more expensive, and emerged during a period when optical and magnetic storage technologies were advancing rapidly. Their brief existence reflects an inflection point in storage history—where incremental magnetic improvements could no longer keep pace with the exponential growth in software size and consumer demand.
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.
