Where I was it went from 3.5" floppies to USB drives. (There were CDs, but not as easy for things like schoolwork.)

ZIP needed a whole ecosystem of drives, so did you have that?

    I had a Sony 1x burner with scsi connector. I still have some new 1x cdr’s somewhere. I remember my work buying a box of them at what I recall were $20/disc. A box of 100 was a serious chunk of change. And even at 1x I had to have a dedicated pc to burn them. Nothing else could be running especially a screensaver, and if the stream of data was interrupted you had a nice new coaster.
