I have a few questions.... (Reply to this comment)

Someone considering buying one of these drives would likely have a few more questions. How do you hook up a scsi drive to a pc, does it come with a scsi card? Is the scsi version faster than other versions of this drive? How much do disks costs? How is documentation, vendor support, warranty, etc? Zip drives historically have had a poor reputation for reliability ( do a google search for "click of death"), have those problems been pretty much fixed? If you update this review, pls email me so I can rerate it.
