Works as advertized, so, no need to discard all my 250 & 750MB disks, which work great for Back up.
No special software required.It uses disks with a 750mb capacity. This product has served me well for years, providing automatic backup of key files designated by me. The one recently purchased through Amazon.com is a replacement. That works fine for me but might not be so appropriate for someone with a need to back up huge files like movies and games. It's been a life saver after a couple of unexpected crashes. Just plug it in and it's ready to go.
The 750mb zip drive isn't horribly fast, but it is more than fast enough to do the trick. This is a great item for storage of shorter-sized documents, such as letters, memos, etc. As desired, the documents can be deleted or changed unlike a CD or DVD.
It should never cost the customer anything when they buy a defective product. You need to refund me 100% of the money I spent on the faulty product. Where is there a phone number so I can call and talk to a real person. I ordered and received an Iomega Zip 750 MB External USB drive. I have returned it, only to find out that I am not being refuned the full amount because of some bogus return policy charge.
On the other hand, a 250MB drive can read from and write to both 250MB and 100MB disks. The only reason for getting this drive is if you want to back up your own files, but that can be done much better using CDs and DVDs. Besides its limited use, this 750MB drive can read from but not write to 100MB disks, which can be quite inconvenient at times. I have been using Zip disks for over 6 years now. So, you may be better off getting a 250MB Zip drive. I have never seen anyone use 750MB disks, and have never seen any computer with a 750MB Zip drive (except the one I own). 98% of the time, me and my colleagues use 100MB disks, and the rest of the time we use 250MB. That means most people would never use this drive for transferring stuff between computers.
