What are Jaz and CD

Jaz was a removable hard disk storage system sold by Iomega in the mid-1990s. It offered users a significant increase in storage capacity, with cartridges available in 1GB and 2GB sizes. Its robust design catered to professional users who needed high-capacity, portable storage. The Jaz drive was popular for its ability to store large files, including multimedia and graphic-intensive content. Despite its initial popularity, it eventually faced competition from emerging storage solutions like CDs and DVDs, which were more cost-effective and offered greater ease of use.

CD, or Compact Disc, is a digital optical disc storage format that was co-developed by Philips and Sony in 1982. Initially designed to store and play sound recordings, it quickly became a standard for audio and later for data storage. CDs can hold up to 74 to 80 minutes of audio or about 700 MB of data, making them a versatile medium for distributing music, software, and multimedia applications. With the advent of DVDs and Blu-ray discs, the use of CDs has declined, but they remain a significant technological milestone in digital media.

History of Jaz and CD
