Floppy disks were a widely used data storage device in the 1980s and 90s. Despite their small size, they were very useful at the time.
They were used in schools and companies to save and transfer documents. Like today's USB drives, they were an essential storage device.

The floppy disk is an iconic symbol of computer storage and is still widely used as the 'save' icon. Its 1.44MB capacity is tiny by today's standards, but it was a revolutionary technology back then.
Interestingly, many airlines continued to use floppy disks for aircraft software updates until 2020. Although an outdated technology, its proven reliability kept it in use in critical systems.
