About these units
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.
DVD (2 layer, 1 side) (DVD (2L, 1S))
A dual-layer, single-sided DVD stores 8.5 GB using a semi-transparent layer that allows the laser to focus at two depths. This innovation enabled longer movies, higher-quality video, and special editions packed with supplemental content. Dual-layer DVDs became standard for commercial video distribution and professional data storage. Although burning DL DVDs at home was initially slow and expensive, they played a crucial role during the transition to higher-capacity optical storage.
