I believe that Kyle has assumed, like I have, that the Zip in question is an older Zip100 SCSI external, you know, in the blue IOMEGA case, due to the comment you made about it looking (QUOTE)"like the chassis would be very unprotected without its plastic shell". It would be next to impossible to mount this drive internally in your 9500. However, perhaps you meant that you have a regular old internal-type Zip SCSI currently mounted into some kind of 3rd party case/housing. If this is true, then you will probably be able to mount that into your 9500 with minimal effort. I hope that I haven't confused the issue further, and sorry, Kyle, if I completely misread your post, but I think you and I are on the same wavelength here.
