Re: Unzipped

[Glenn Schunemann]

Zip 250 drives can only read zip 100 disks; they can not write to them. 
And the reading of data is very, very slow. I had a similar problem 
with a Zip 100 drive years ago. It was the "master" on it's own IDE bus 
and I ended up taking the jumper off (so there was no jumper at all) 
and then it would read disks from other zip drives. Give it a try. Who 
knows....

Hi,
I replaced the internal Zip100 with a ZIP250 in my Beige G3/300 so I 
could transfer data easily to my B&WG3/ 400 which allready has a 
250Zip.
Both computers are fine with there own zipdisks but won't accept each 
others!  I checked with Diskutility and erased and reformatted and 
it's fine on the computer I use for it I  but I cannot find a way of 
creating a zipdisk that is readable on BOTH (either). Diskwarrior 
couldn't help. Weird! Because both zipdrives  work fine where they 
are. Is this a software problem? I am running MacOs 10.2.8 on both 
computers.

Thanks,
