I would like to connect it [a Mac IIsi] to a Zip drive and am unsure

SCSI type ZIP Drives work great on Mac IIsi's.
Stick the drive at the end of the SCSI chain, set the ID switch, and
be sure it's terminated (the other switch on the back). Then install
Iomega's driver.
Remember: SCSI is NOT hot-swappable (like USB or Firewire)!!!!
Shutdown your Mac *before* fooling with the SCSI cables or powering
the SCSI device. Turn on all SCSI devices first, THEN boot your Mac.
DO NOT disconnect or turn off ANY SCSI devices while your Mac is
running - besides upsetting the OS, that could blow the SCSI port etc.
