A DVD (1 layer, 2 sides) is a digital optical disc storage format capable of storing approximately 4.7 GB of data per side, used for data storage, video playback, and software distribution.
History/Origin
The DVD was developed in the mid-1990s as a successor to CDs, with the first commercial DVDs introduced in 1996. It became widely adopted for video and data storage, replacing VHS tapes and CDs in many applications.

Petabyte
A petabyte (PB) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,000 terabytes or 1,000,000 gigabytes, used to measure large data storage capacities.
History/Origin
The petabyte was introduced as data storage capacities grew beyond terabytes, becoming more common with the expansion of data centers and large-scale storage systems in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Current Use
Petabytes are used to quantify data in large-scale data centers, cloud storage services, and enterprise data management, reflecting the massive scale of modern digital data.
