About these units
Zip 100 (Zip 100)
The Zip 100 drive stored 100 MB, offering a dramatic leap over floppy disk capacity. Released by Iomega in the mid-1990s, it became extremely popular for backups, graphics projects, and transporting large files. Graphic designers, office workers, and early multimedia users relied heavily on Zip drives during a period when hard drives were small and CDs were not yet convenient for rewritable storage. Zip disks represented an era of transitional storage—but also gained notoriety for the infamous "click of death," a mechanical failure that could render disks unreadable. Despite this, Zip drives were a defining feature of 1990s computing.
CD (74 minute) (CD (74 min))
A 74-minute CD typically holds 650 MB of digital data. Originally designed for audio playback, CDs later became a major format for software distribution, backups, and digital media. The 74-minute length was chosen to accommodate Beethoven's Ninth Symphony on a single disc—a blend of engineering, commerce, and cultural symbolism. As CDs pivoted to data storage (CD-ROM), their precise reflectivity patterns and error-correction codes allowed reliable long-term archival. These discs became essential for installing software, distributing games, and storing personal files throughout the 1990s and early 2000s.
