You probably do not want to hear this, but ZIP drives are obsolete for many reasons. You
can get a CDR/CD-RW drive for about $30, and disks which have a capacity of more than 700
MB can be gotten for as little as 50 cents. I copied the files from my ZIP disks (which
always had a high propensity for failure), and are expensive) to CD, and got rid of my ZIP
drive. Or, for $59.99 you can get an Emprex drive that burns DVDs which cost about a
dollar and can store about 4.7 GB of data. It also burns CDs, DVD-RW, and double layer
DVDs which store about 8.5 GB of data (but the double layer disks are more expensive).
I've hard many good things about the Emprex DVD/CD burner. Check it out at:
