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 ~£50

@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’ll see if I can get into the office next week some time, will let you know!

Star! Thank you so much that’s really good of you.

Tried to DM you, but apparently you are not accepting messages at the moment… feel free to DM me and we can sort out the finer details

FYI @marymck

So sorry. I don’t know how that happened. I’ll PM you now.

I can’t! sorry I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

I can’t find that page Chris.

Should be under this link:

It should appear in the “Interface” section of your preferences. Here’s a shortcut: https://se23.life/my/preferences/interface

@promofaux great minds!

neat shortcut with the /my/, mind.
