Zip 100
Zip 100 is a data storage unit used to measure the capacity of storage devices, equivalent to 100 bytes of digital information.
History/Origin
The Zip 100 unit originated from the development of the Zip 100MB removable disk storage system in the late 1990s, where it was used informally to denote small data capacities in bytes for specific technical contexts.
Current Use
Today, Zip 100 is rarely used in practical applications; it serves mainly as a historical reference or in specialized technical discussions within data storage and digital measurement contexts.
Petabit
A petabit (Pb) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^15 bits or 1,000,000,000,000,000 bits.
History/Origin
The petabit was introduced as part of the binary and decimal prefixes for large data quantities, reflecting the increasing need for larger units in data storage and transfer, especially during the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Petabits are primarily used in the context of large-scale data storage, data transfer rates, and network bandwidth measurements, particularly in data centers, internet infrastructure, and high-capacity storage systems.
