In the latter half of the 20th century, the floppy disk served as a universal storage device. Before any “disks” or “discs” were made accessible, the majority of computer systems sent data using reel-to-reel tapes. They may have appeared in previous Syfy films with continuously rewinding reels on a huge computer. I need to make…
