What is the cost of floppy's per gigabyte?

The cost of floppy disks per gigabyte can vary significantly depending on availability and market demand, as floppy disks are largely outdated technology. Typically, a standard 3.5-inch floppy disk holds about 1.44 MB of data. Considering this capacity, you would need approximately 700 floppy disks to equal 1 GB, which would make the cost per gigabyte quite high, often exceeding several hundred dollars if you factor in the price of individual disks. Overall, it's impractical to use floppy disks for modern data storage needs.
