Yes, It usually depends on how much the CD storage. Cds hold more data, pictures, music and other stuff. A floppy disk can only hold kbs and mbs of files. That is less than the cds hold, and floppy disks are getting obsolete. CDs, DVDs, and USB flash drives are the latest to save things on.

How do you restore a shrunk hard disk drive to its original state in size?
As data is saved to a hard drive, the free space lessens until the there is no more space for further data - the drive is full. I assume this is what is meant by the "shrunk" hard disk drive in the question? Formatting the drive will return the drive to the original size. Note: formatting doesn't actually wipe the drive completely, the data is still on the drive. Only the links to the data is severed, so the computer acts as though the drive is blank and it can write new data to the drive.
