| cturner's Full Review: Iomega Zip 250 External SCSI Drive |
I own two 100mb Parallel Port iomega Zip drives, one 250mb iomega Parallel Port Zip drive and one internal 100mb iomega Zip Drive. My opinion is that the zip drives are the greatest device since the early computer era.
It used to be that I was forever buying 3.5" disketts, now with the 100mb disk drive I have not had to buy any 3.5" disks as each of the 100mb zip disks hold the equivalent of 72x 3.5" disks and the 250mb zip disks 170.
You can imagine the time saved now that I no longer have to sort through hundreds of disks to find a file or other saved information, I just label the zip disks according to the files, E-mails or pictures that I need to save.
Other great features: Color disks for easy identification i.e. green for my saved files, red for my digital pictures, blue for my business letters etc. The 250mb zip drive transformer is also compatible with other Countries as it is dual voltage, very small and 50Hz or 60Hz.
My recommendation is to spent the extra and go for the 250mb drive, you will be glad you did. The 250mb zip drive can read the 100mb disks.
