Yep. I’ve used 5 1/4s, 3.5s, Zip, CDs, CD-Rs, CD-RWs, DVDs, DVD-Rs, DVD-RWs, BD, BD-R, BD-RW, Thumb/Flash, SD, Micro SD, and CF. The only one I can think of that I never personally used were Tapes, but I know people who did. They kind of came and went in a hurry it felt like to me.

One of the weirder ones was Orb drives/disks.
I still have this and a zip drive in a box. I’d probably need to see if the USB to serial adapter I have works with it though.
My first computer, a Commodore 64, was purchased with a tape drive because we were too broke for a 1541 5.25" disk drive.
I could start a game loading, go eat dinner, come back and it would just be getting around to being done loading.
I use LTO8 tapes every day in 2024 lol
Same for me, but add:
So many Bernoulli’s
I had never heard of those until now. 5 1/4 disk size with 230 mb sounds pretty sweet
I had a cassette drive on my TI 99/4a.
Now get off my lawn!
I don’t even have a lawn but they need to get off the lawn still!
