Amazing Amount of Storage

by rleigh81 , Jun 05 '00
Pros: Lots of Storage
Cons: Loud
I received this product in a package deal from Apple. It was one of the few things from the package that actually satisfied me. The drive can hold amazing amounts of storage. More than a zip drive! It is fairly fast too, almost as fast as my iMac,...

SuperDrive is great!

by pandora12 , Dec 14 '00
Pros: 120Mb disks, easy file shahring with friends
Cons: Printer conflicts, a bit slow with large files

Forget the Zip Drive

by SC8488 , Jun 15 '00
Pros: Compatible with floppy disks, fast transfer rate, affordable
Cons: not as good a value as CD-RW
We always hear about Zip Drives and how they're so popular. But what about the SuperDisk drives? I didn't even know about them until a few weeks ago when I decided to buy one. The SuperDisk drive is similar to a Zip Drive, but it stores 120 MB's...

Quite a luxury for computer users!

by NYKatMSG , Jul 25 '00
Pros: tons of space
Cons: pricey
I bought the Imation SuperDisk drive for one reason: tons of memory! Each super disk can hold 120MB. That's a luxurious amount of space on one disk. I knew it would be helpful to have with my computer, so I bought it.

Space Saver

by DeRango Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 13 '00
Pros: Use regular disks along with super disks. Saves space! & Irq's, works great with laptops!
Cons: ???
Great for laptops, if you own a laptop not only do you get your much need floppy drive, but you also have the option to use the super disks. Laptop's hard-drives tend to be small, by having this you can store up to 120MB on a single disk; best of all...

Able To Leap Large Files in a Single Bound!

by zero_ Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Nov 08 '01
Pros: Media is (comparatively) cheap, reads regular floppies.
Cons: Slow, and ties up yet another socket on your power strip.
Magnetic media technology has come a long way since the days of 8 inch single sided floppies. With companies perfecting their optical/magnetic recording technologies all over the place, competition for your mass-storage dollar is getting fierce.

Not so Super Disk

by jkadian , Dec 15 '00
Pros: ability to use 1.44 floppies
Cons: SLOW
I purchased a Imation Superdisk over a year ago. I went to a computer show in New York City and got an incredible rebate offer. I was looking for a storage device due to hard drive capacity limitations. Imation Superdisk offered 120MB per disk...

by Energismus , Jun 14 '00
Pros: Lots of Storage Space!
Cons: Slow. Very slow.
Ok, I got the USB version of this drive and I've had a number of problems with it.

Sure its a nice drive, with 120 Mb SuperDisks and standard floppy disk support. But it is still as slow as a normal floppy drive, so you can imagine the time it...

Much bigger than a standard floppy, but just as slow.

by Maytwa , Oct 01 '00
Pros: Can hold up to 120 MB on SuperDisks. Uses standard floppies too. Very portable.
Cons: Ties up your parallel port. Very slow.
I purchased this drive to have a means to back up large files and to more easily transfer files between my computer and my girlfriends. As it turns out, the thing was more trouble than it was worth.

My biggest dislike for the product was the...
