I remember having a CD burner, dvd burner, floppy drive, and Zip drive for those rare occasions.

I remember backing up all my documents on a zip drive and feeling like we reached peak storage.

Last month I bought two 6TB drives into my house because of all my photos/videos.

Felt like we could store the whole world on 100mb zip disks

I still have a working zip drive.

I still have a bunch of zip disks that I want to examine. Think they're still good?
