Iomega 250 MB Zip Disks.......2007-05-13
I use these all the time. They arrived very quickly.
User-friendly.......2006-09-27
I was introduced to zip discs when taking some computer classes about 5 years ago. At the time, I didn't even HAVE a CD burner, but found a deal on a zip drive. They are basically beefed-up floppies, and as most of the things I need to back up are documents in progess, it's easy to regularly copy items over to a zip disc. I've been using the same three for several years and have never had a problem, and I always recommend them to friends, but it does seem that CDs and now DVDs are more popular. DVDs may have more space but for text or html docs that need frequent editing, zips are much better suited for my needs.
Corruptions? That's weird........2004-12-29
Really weird. I bought a USB 250MB disk drive kit because the school computers have zip drives. I've been using the same two 250 MB disks for about 2 years now, and they've worked fine. I used it to transfer files between school (WinXP) and my home computer (Linux).
I think CDS are great for backups, but not for file transfers. Even CDRWs aren't good for that since you have to copy all the files to your PC, blank the disk, and write the files back to update the disk. Sure we have those UDF formatted CDRWs that work like any other storage device, but THAT is unrealiable, and WinXP doesn't even support it by default.
Memory sticks, hmm, they are compact, but they use EEPROM, which means that you are limited in the number of times a memory location can be erased. CDRWs suffer from a similar erase limit, but I've had the same CDRWs for many years, and they still work.
I think the zip 250 disks are great, though I wish they were a bit cheaper.
I wouldn't recommend Iomega Zip Drive.......2003-10-01
I have used Iomega Zip since the early days of parallel Zip 100. As an IT Professional, I need my portable storage to be fast, convenient and 100% reliable. Unfortunately, the USB Zip 250 and 750 drives I possess are none of these things! The disks corrupt often and catastrophically - it is really frustrating, as the potential flexibility and convenience of this format is great.
Go the CD-R or CD-RW route, or even better, use something solid-state, but don't buy this product.
Better and faster than floppies, but recommend USB Drives.......2003-08-28
I've use zip disks for about a year now. Have to admit that at least i haven't had to worry about scratching them up like CDs but they're not all that dependable when transferring from computer to computer. The only reason i really used them was because I had to for my multimedia class in college. They only equipt a few of their computers with CD Burners and most have Zip Drives. Out of the 5 zip disks i used, 2 of them had problems which have caused me to spend extra time redoing corrupt files for class. While they work pretty well if u want to be able to carry some files around with you in your pocket or just toss it in your backpack, i dont recommend using zips to transfer your work between many computers such as for computer labs. USB ThumbDrives for me. They are solid state, fast, and dont corrupt as easily if at all.
