Megabit
A megabit (Mb) is a unit of digital information equal to one million bits, commonly used to measure data transfer speeds and network bandwidth.
History/Origin
The term 'megabit' emerged with the development of digital communication and data storage technologies in the late 20th century, becoming standard for describing internet speeds and data rates.
Current Use
Megabits are widely used today to specify internet connection speeds, network bandwidth, and data transfer rates in telecommunications and networking contexts.
Floppy Disk (5.25", Dd)
A 5.25-inch double-density floppy disk is a magnetic storage medium used for data storage and transfer in computers, typically holding up to 1.2 MB of data.
History/Origin
Introduced in the late 1970s, the 5.25-inch floppy disk became widely popular in the 1980s as a portable storage medium before being phased out in favor of higher-capacity and more durable storage solutions in the 1990s.
Current Use
Today, the 5.25-inch floppy disk is obsolete, with minimal use primarily in archival or legacy systems; it is mostly of historical interest and collector's value.
