Aloha Woj,
How did you get the drive to work with USB? By a hardware adapter? I
read there is a USB to ide on the market.
I remember specifically that Iomega produced USB Zip drives, though not when
they first produced SCSI, ATAPI and parallel-port Zip drives.

Aloha,
I need to get an old parallel Omega Zip drive to work on a freeBSD 8.*
to transfer some archives to new media.
I have a problem with getting the OS to read the Omega Zip drive so it
can be seen in dmesg to manually set the id correctly in /etc/fstab
Flash drives and floppies show up

Now would be an ideal time to dd the device to an image file and play with
that until you get it working. If your hardware or media fails as-is
you'll be rather disappointed :-)

I am amazed anyone still has a working Zip drive! Both mine suffered from the
click of death some years ago, round about when 4.11 was current. I would get
any data off them and onto a CD/DVD as soon as possible. For me, they would

I also have a couple of customers still using two or three
