My first Zip 100 drive (model Z100S2) has ID and termination switches on the back; it works on my wife's 7220.
I just bought 2 Zip 100 drives (both model Z100P2) for $2.50US, but they both freeze the 7220. I suspect that this is due to an ID conflict; if I plug in the drive and THEN bbot the computer, the screen comes on but remains entirely blank. If I boot first, then connect the Zip, the computer freezes.
These two drives look initially identical to the old, but neither has any switches. How do I change the ID on these?
The Z100S2 has a diagram printed on the bottom for the switch operation. One of the P2s has a diagram of how to connect it, but no mention of ID settings. The other has no diagram.
It may possibly be that the Z100S2 is SCSI and the Z100P2 Parallel.
