Rating: Summary: No outlets required Review: EXCELLENT, PORTABLE, AND FAST. BEST OF ALL, NO EXTERNAL POWER REQUIRED, PLUG AND PLAY.EASY TO USE.
Rating: Summary: Great buy Review: I bought one of these a few months ago, it was one of the best decision I ever made haven't regretted it. I use it with both my PC and notebook with the same satisfactory result. It's fast to the save every time, and comes with pretty imteresting tools. Comparing a floppy to the Zip250, is like comparing a 50's Studabaker to a 2001 Mercedes.
Rating: Summary: It's Little, It's Blue and it Zips too! Review: I have had my USB Zip 250 for year and it is great, its easy to use and easy to carry. The USB powered drive makes it great for any PC and Laptop and can be easily removed from any PC you need to grab data. The problem with 100MB is ok but another issue might come laptop users who don't plug their laptops in. Not to mention that this drive is useless on any PC older then 4 years that lack USB. Overall a darn good product from the people who made high capacity drives so simple.
Rating: Summary: This is a great drive Review: I just got this drive and I love it already. It installed in seconds. Just load the software, and plug in the drive with the USB cable. No power cord needed! The drive is very lightweight and compact. I had a Parallel Zip, and this drive is MUCH faster. This is a great drive!

Rating: Summary: Superb! Review: I needed an external drive in a hurry, and initially turned to external CD burners. However, after reading numerous reviews across a variety of sites, it quickly became obvious that none of the external burners were up to the task. According to reviews, most of them (HP 8000 series, Iomega Predator, etc...) suffered from reliability problems, and to exacerbate the matter further, transfer speeds were reportedly slow. Hence, in desperation, I turned to other forms of storage. To my delight, Iomega's Zip 250 USB drive has performed excellently! I haven't had a chance to test out the firewire capability, but all I can say is that I am extremely pleased with its USB performance! I have successfully transferred all my files from my work computer (running on Windows NT) to my home computer (running on Windows 98), and there have been no software or reliability issues at all. Good going, Iomega! Now, if only they could pull their stock out of the pits........
Rating: Summary: True Portability Review: I needed this for my Ultra Portable X200. It's light, small and as fast as you need for storing and moving relatively large files. A must for notebook users trying to eliminate wires and bulk.

Rating: Summary: A fun little drive! Review: I've had my Zip 250 drive for over 2 years, and I love it! It's a snap to install, easy to use, compact, lightweight, quiet, and dare I say cute? I've only used it on my husband's computer which has USB. Recently I ordered a parallel port cable from Iomega.com.... So this drive can be made parallel port-compatible. I haven't tried it yet, so can't comment on how speed is affected (for those who are obsessed with such things!). If you're looking for an easy, reliable and affordable storage solution you can't go wrong with this drive. My first one was defective, and Iomega replaced it promptly with no hassle. And this one is going strong these 2+ years.
Rating: Summary: What you're looking for Review: If you need an exterior Zip drive, you've found it. This is perfect for your every zip need. It is very small- not much wider then an actual zip disk. In addition, it comes with a rubber stand that can make it take up even less desk space by making it vertical. It is extremely light and therefore portable and easily plugs into your computer with a fast USB cable. There is no necessary installation either. Also, it is good to note that this is a good MB zip drive to get for two reasons- it can still take 100MB ones (the size smaller) and there is no real need for most to get a 700 MB drive (the size larger) because if you're dealing with that much information most people would use a CD instead and it is very hard to find a 700 MB disk. Also, take into account that this is a very good price especially considering it includes 3 disks- which can run $$$ each sometimes.
