A floppy disk is a type of data storage device that was widely used from the late 1960s until the early 2000s. It consists of a thin, flexible magnetic disk encased in a square or rectangular plastic shell. The 3.5-inch Enhanced Density (ED) version of the floppy disk can store 2.88 MB of data. Although largely obsolete today, floppy disks were once a standard for transferring data between computers, backing up files, and distributing software.
Definition of DVDA DVD, or Digital Versatile Disc, is a digital optical disc storage format invented and developed in 1995. It is widely used for video, audio, and data storage, capable of holding up to 4.7 GB on a single-layer, single-sided disc. DVDs revolutionized media storage due to their higher capacity compared to CDs, better video quality, and durability. They quickly became the standard for movie distribution, video games, and data archiving, replacing earlier magnetic and optical storage formats.
