No; IDE is fine ...

Usually ... but /266 machines were made in Rev. 1A versions, and those were 
supplied with a SCSI Zip, if a Zip was factory ordered.

The later /266s (1998, e.g.) were Rev. 2B versions, and it is these which can 
support an EIDE Zip.

If your /266 was an earlier one, or a refurb, then it is possible that it is 
Rev. 1A, and cannot take an EIDE Zip without deleting the CD-ROM.
