Wanted: Iomega ZIP 250 drive

Wanted: Iomega ZIP 250 drive. Loan or buy.

wow… are you trying to transer some data from zip disks? I haven’t seen or used them since '99!

Is it urgent? There is a slim possibility I can borrow a working on from the office that we used to use… Only issue is it is likely LPT (parallel port…), so if you’re planning on plugging it into a modern laptop/PC you might be out of luck!

Edit: Failing that, there is one going on ebay (shipped from the states) for ~ÂŁ50

@promofaux there’s no urgency at all. I just have some old Zip disks that might - just might - have some photos on and our existing Zip drive went bang. So a borrow of one would be amazing, thank you. My husband has an old laptop with LPT ports so that’s no problem.

I can’t find that page Chris.
