Questions & Answers

Does anyone know where I can get cds for the Iomega ?

Disks, I believe, was what you meant to say. A CD is technically different from a DVD. The disks can be found on eBay or on Amazon. *br>100 or 250 disks work with the 250 drive but not the 100 drive. *br>also, you can find them on Ebay or Amazon. If you search for "Zip 100 disks" or "Zip 250 disks" you will find Iomega, Fujifilm, Maxwell or others but in over 20 years dealing with Iomega products, I have never seen one better than the other manufacturer.

Your search is over
5/5

This is the Zip drive you need if you need an exterior one. There's no need to search any further for your zip needs. As you can see, it is tiny There is not much difference in width between a zip disk and Moreover, it comes with a stand that makes it even better for taking up minimal desk space since it can be turned As its name suggests, the device is extremely light and is therefore portable. A fast USB cable makes it easy to connect to your computer. Also, there is no need for installation. Additionally, it is good to note that this is a good MB zip drive to get both for its price and its smooth performance. Although it can still take 100MB drives (the smaller ones), there's not really any need for most people to get a 700MB drive (the larger one) because if you're dealing with that much information most people would use a CD instead and that is very hard to find. Consider also the fact that this is a very good price, especially if you count the fact that it includes 3 disks. The costs can sometimes run into the thousands of dollars.

Apple machines do not seem to be able to use it
3/5

I am still interested in the Zip drive, but I cannot seem to find a way to contact Iomega to see if they have coordinated with Apple to upgrade for the drive to work. I have a few discs that have photos on them I would like to view. My best wishes go out to you.

I don't like to deal with you
3/5

I tried to install this device (1 laptop and 1 desktop ) on two computers but the devices, as well as the software I was using, were clogged. It was not compatible with Windows 10. Don't know if the software was non-compatible. The software had to be removed using the 'restore the system' command, and my computers were once again able to work. Would be great if someone had the same problem could share any solutions, including recommendations for updating drivers and patches. I still have a couple ZIP 100 disks I have yet to open with crucial data.

Disks larger than 100 MB should be avoided
3/5

Its important for you to be aware that Zip disks of 100MB are read and written very slowly in this drive, and I keep getting a series of errors when trying to write to a PC-based computer. You have just formatted a Zip disk on your Similarly, no errors were encountered when this information was written to the same disks using a Zip100 drive. Please don't think the 250 is completely backwards compatible with a 100 MB disk. As a result, limitations apply.

A zip file of 250 MB It's powered
3/5

During the first six months of use, the product worked well. Over time, it got slower and slower until it was no longer able to read I called the company and they told me it was out of warranty and was going to cost $80 to fix. You will have to pay $0. 00 plus tax and shipping to have it fixed. The drive was only in my possession for 14 months, and I used it very little while I had it. A concession of any kind was not offered by Omega. Well, what they have just lost in their cheap prices is a customer.

A Memory Stick 31653 is included
5/5

All transactional issues were resolved without any issues at all. My mdse came much faster than I expected and it was just what I expected. This AAA list.

It is not necessary to install outlets
5/5

I LIKE IT BECAUSE IT IS FAST, PORTABLE, AND EXCELLENT. The best feature is that no external power supply is needed simply plug it in and start using it. The user interface is simple and easy to use.
