This product has served me well for years, providing automatic backup of key files designated by me. It's been a life saver after a couple of unexpected crashes. Just plug it in and it's ready to...
Be aware that IomegaWare is not compatible with Windows Vista, per Iomega's website. However, the disks still read and (for 250 & 750 MB) write just fine. The ejector noise is a little irritating,...
I ordered and received an Iomega Zip 750 MB External USB drive. I have returned it, only to find out that I am not being refuned the full amount because of some bogus return policy charge.
In this third iteration of the Zip drive, Iomega has pushed capacity up to 750MB, representing a healthy tripling of capacity since the previous move from 100MB to 250MB . It's a healthy...
The other reviewers are right. The zip format is very convenient. I have been using them for years. I used to mail the 100mb disks overseas in just an envelope without a problem. Very reliable.
The advantage of the Zip drive over a CDROM is the shorter time it takes to make a backup. CD burn programs require several minutes to make a backup. A Zip drive a few seconds - drag and drop....

There's long been a battle over the replacement for floppy disks. While the floppy has steadfastly refused to roll over and die, Iomega has performed well with its Zip drives. This next evolution...
This device allows both storage and transfer of data at a high rate of speed. Computers have a limit on the number of IDE devices, and desktop computers have a limited number of bays. The disks may...
I'm pretty much in agreement with the previous reviewer (Jeffery Hauck). In my case my PC tower died just a few days before I went to get this item. When I went to sites which make custom PCs, low...
Like an earlier reviewer I think a product like this should work for more than three years (I'd say at least seven.) But I didn't even get three years out of mine. Unfortunately I bought one in...
Iomega's new 250MB is a breakthrough in external data storage. It's not particularly fast, and 250MB Zip disks have been around for years, so what's the big deal? Well, after years of waiting, the...
I have a Mac Pro and installed the software on both Leopard and Windows XP on this machine. Installation was simple and the drive worked as expected in both operating systems the first time and...
This starter kit doesn't contain the U250 disks (10 year guarantee), but the regular 250 MB zip disks (5 year guarantee). I am sending 2 kits back today. Iomega quit making the U250 Zip disks....
This is a neat little drive. The only reason I got this was because the new Macs don't come with built in zip drives anymore, and I have alot of data on zips. I didn't get the 750MB drive because...

Installed easily on a brand new Dell Notebook and worked fine. Then I tried to remove it. "Safely Remove Hardware" simply locked up and I had to Ctrl/Alt/Del to kill it. Simply unplugging it didn't...
I backup 2 GB of data, and it takes about 90 minutes on my REV drive. Tech support says maybe my server uses USB 1.1 and not 2.0. I don't know...I'll call HP support and try and find out. I got an...
There are cheaper ways to back up your data than with Iomega's Rev drive. Selling for just north of ??200, and with a 35GB cartridge disk coming in at around the price of a 40GB hard drive (just...

The Rev is Iomega's latest attempt to recapture the glory days of the highly successful Zip drive. The concept is simple. Take a fairly ordinary 2.5in hard disk, remove the heads and place them...
Retrospect "Express", which comes with the 70 GB Rev drive, is anything but. Slowest backup software I have ever encountered. I am a computer geek and even I found the user interface to be obtuse...

Data Explosion = Storage Needs = Iomega We are witnessing the age of the data explosion. Due to the advent of computer technology, there is almost nothing that we cannot digitize and store in...
The zip drive does hold a lot of data but it is very unstable. I have had three zip drives that died of the "Click of Death" Once your drive goes bad, your disk will click continuously....
Iomega's Zip 250 is a neat little gadget. Its cool blue, streamlined design looks pretty good, for a start. It's also very useful, as its 250Mb removable disks provide an affordable and convenient...
Backup and removable storage seem to go hand in hand nowadays and a name that's become synonymous with removable storage drives is Iomega. We have seen little of note from this company in recent...

There was a time when Iomega could do no wrong in terms of storage. Its 100MB Zip drive released in 1995 became a huge seller and a staple of designers' desks the world over. However, with PCs now...
Iomega's Zip drive has been around for a few years now, but every six months or so it manages to come up with a new version that's a different shape, colour or capacity. It's a not-terribly subtle...

Tape has been giving way to the external hard drive as the preferred backup medium for small businesses. But if you need off-site copies of your data, hauling home a heavy, fragile hard drive seems...

Although it's very expensive per megabyte, Iomega's cartridge-based Rev drive offers speedy, portable storage that's more scalable than that of a conventional hard drive...
The product was advertised with the 8 pack of disks, but there was only 1 disk. The disk was in good working order and the price was fair for a single disk.
I've been a Zip disk fan for many years. However, this 750 drive (firewire) and accompanying disks has been terrible. I just had my third disk go currupt in as many months. All data lost. I'm...
I have found Zip/Rev disks to be the most reliable hard disk backup system yet developed. Tapes are slow and unreliable. CD-R disks can be used only once. CD-RW never seems to work properly.
