Storage units have come a long way, and the methods we use for storing our images have evolved greatly over the past few decades. This is why we chose to dedicate one DIYP quiz to storage space!
Some of you remember how we stored our early digital images before gigantic external hard drives and cloud services. But let’s see if you can remember how much data all these old storage units could hold. And if you share your results with us – we may even be able to guess roughly how old you are.
