The CD (80 minute) or cd-80 is a unit of data storage representing the capacity of a standard 80-minute compact disc, typically equivalent to approximately 700 megabytes.
History/Origin
The cd-80 unit originated with the standard CD-ROM format in the late 1980s and early 1990s, which commonly stored around 700 MB of data, corresponding to an 80-minute audio CD. It became a standard measure for optical disc storage capacity during the era of CD technology.
Current Use
Today, the cd-80 unit is largely obsolete as data storage has shifted to digital and cloud-based solutions. However, it is still used in historical contexts or for referencing optical disc capacities in legacy systems and media collections.
Exabyte
An exabyte (EB) is a unit of digital information equal to one quintillion bytes (10^18 bytes).
History/Origin
The exabyte was introduced as data storage capacities increased, serving as a large-scale unit to measure vast amounts of data, especially in data centers and cloud storage, during the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Exabytes are used to quantify large-scale data storage and transfer, such as global internet traffic, data centers, and cloud storage capacities in modern digital infrastructure.
