I have a drive in the shop. I have maybe 20 disks. Backups and copies.
Win 95 mostly stuff. Some other.

Now for the good news for you...

The drive hooks up parallel. It feeds back parallel.

It will read a 3V low voltage port and drive the same data at 5V !!!

Some product needs or requires 5v to interface - some CAD controllers....

Without the drive software on the computer, it acts as a transmission line
buffer. The computer won't play with it. XP anyway when I played.

Ok guys,

A friend gave me an old box to scrap that had a ZIP drive in it, he also
gave me eight 100MB disks for it, two of which are new and unopened.

I KNOW some of you still use this stuff .. so make me an offer in trade... I
sure ain't gonna try and fleaBay this to get 10 bucks...

If it's a regular here like Gunner, or Iggy, or one of the "Don's" I'll
send it no questions asked, somebody else may have to persuade me they won't
rip me off for the shipping.

What do I want?.. Hell I dunna-no.. A couple of 64th 5C collets would
probably get it...

Don't respond here, drop me an e-mail, I'm sure you can figure out how to
get rid of the NOSPAM before you respond, and put ZIP DRIVE SWAP in the
subject, even with SpamAssissian I still take a couple 100 a day...

I won't necessarily take the first offer, just some thing worth while.
