Zip Drive 100 SCSI (External)

Price range: $65.00 through $100.00

100 Meg of removable storage!

Description

This Zip Drive, Model Z100S2,  will organize your files using removable 100MB disks (not included) that are slightly larger than a 3.5″ floppy disk in size. This drive uses a SCSI interface and will work anywhere in your SCSI chain – although the SCSI ID can only be set to 5 or 6. With an operating system installed on a Zip Disk, your Mac or Apple IIGS can boot from this drive! You can even share or transfer files between Macs, or between a Mac and an Apple IIGS. The Apple IIGS does not need drivers, Later Mac systems, such as OS 9 have the drivers built in to the operating system, but earlier OS’s such as System 6 or 7 will need Zip drivers. Early drivers can be found at the Mac Driver Museum: https://vintageapple.org/macdrivers/disk.html

Cables and power supplies are very limited, so if you are replacing a bad drive, please don’t order them. There are even a couple of boxed sets! All pieces have been tested to work.

All choices will include 5 tested and formatted used Zip Disks. Additional Zip Disk(s) are available here.

I haven’t seen one in a long time, but Epson made a white Zip Drive as well. (photo is for reference, there are none available right now).
