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.
Kilobyte (kB)
A kilobyte traditionally represents 1,024 bytes (2¹⁰), reflecting binary-based memory design. Historically, operating systems, RAM modules, and floppy disks all used the binary kilobyte because memory addressing naturally aligned with powers of two. Kilobytes were once considered large: early computer programs and operating systems were measured in just a few kB. The first text-based adventure games fit entirely within 32 kB. Although kilobytes seem tiny today, they remain important for low-level embedded systems, boot loaders, configuration memory, and microcontrollers. The kilobyte is a reminder of computing's early constraints and the precision of binary address spaces.
