Review: Though I hear people complaining that Zip disks are corruptable and break easily, I've never had a problem with them. I'm a student and I've used Zip disks since high school and never once have they gone bad on me. I've used them to store simple Word files to large computer-generated images and I find them a convieniant way to store big amounts information you don't want eating up valuable space on your hard drive. CDs may be cheaper to buy, but with a CD-R once you put information on, you can't edit what's on the disk, and CD-RWs are a tad bit more expensive, plus CDs scratch more easily and one bad drop onto a kitchen floor can crack them if you're not careful. I think ZIP disks are the best way to go.
