Iomega 750MB External Zip Drive

Comments about Iomega 750MB External Zip Drive:

I had to recover data on some old zip discs that were recorded on a computer where the Zip drive plugged into the serial port. These days that port does not exist on computers as most devices are connected via PS2 ports. This product allowed me to connect to the newer computer and recover all data from the old Zip discs. The only minor thing is that it cannot write to the older 100MB discs - but on the glass is half full side it does write to the 250MB discs.

I bought the ZIP drive because I found a bunch of old ZIP disks I hadn't seen in years, and returned it 2 days later. Unfortunately, the new drive is read-only for the old 100 MB disks, so I was able to copy off some old files, but the disks are still useless (and now landfill material). For the cost of the drive and new disks, the slow read-speed, small capacity, and the noise, I don't know why anyone still uses these. Save yourself time and money and just buy a flash drive or external hard drive.
