Advantages: Mass storage for a good price Disadvantages: Transfer of files needs a portable or second drive on the target computer
...Everyone wants more drivespace. Files are getting bigger as are applications. It becomes increasingly more difficult to transfer files from one computer to another.
A zip drive can help out.
The 250M drive is slightly bigger than the zipdisk itself.
The USB connection is considerable faster than a parallel connection. In a number of tests I read about transfer rates of 900kb/s.
Another point to mention is the downward compatibility with 100Mb zipdisks (the older version). The 250Mb drive can read these disks with ease, though writing is impossible. Also the zipdrive is capable of working under Windows XX and the Macintosh operating systems.
Hopefully Iomega will work on a Linux version....

Advantages: Fast data transfer Disadvantages: Pricy device
...I am using the Iomega Zip 250 via USB for my work and I really like this storage device compared to the earlier one, the 100 MB Zip which I find it insufficient at times.
The outlook of this portable device is sleek and the blue transparent case gives it some class of its own. It gives fast connection over USB and I have no problems transferring data from my harddisk to the drive.
In fact, I could also played music from the zip disc. This storage device is handy if you are planning to move large files or data from one computer to another which is not physically connected at all.
I rate the Iomega Zip 250 as one of the best portable storage device that Iomega has ever designed....

Advantages: Cheap, easy to use, fast, can leave printer plugged in Disadvantages: Not as fast as an external hard drive
...A zip drive is an excellent and cost effective way to back up your files, or to keep sensitive files away from your main computer.
The zip 250connects to the parallel port, and has itself got a parallel port, so that you can have both the zip drive and your printer connected at the same time.
The price of the zip drive is about £100, but the disks are quite expensive, about £10 each for the 250mb ones, although the 100mb disks work on this drive as well.
Backups take about 3 minutes to do a 250mb disk, and the software makes it quite easy to do.
Don't risk losing all your files, floppies are very unreliable, and hard discs do crash. Think what you would lose if your pc broke, or was stolen.
I tend to back up my personal folders avery week, and rotate between 3 discs, so that I always have archived backups in case something goes...
