The other three simply did not work. I finally received a new drive and it works great. Very pleased with this drive. Beware of used iomega drives, it's a hit and miss adventure. ### ⭐ Disappointed - drive does not work *by W***A on December 28, 2025* This drive does not read any 100mb zip disks A Waste of money ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Zips are out-of-date items but worth having *by H***G on May 26, 2022* I have a lot of material on Zip drives and the last Zip I order was refurbished and did not work. So far this new one is working well and I am recovering a lot of files that were dormant.
