Officially, Zip drives only work on PC's and Macs,
but I am yet to encounter a machine that won't recognise them as ordinary hard drives.
I have internal (ATA and SCSI) drives in some machine, and external USB (250) and FireWire
(750) drives, meaning I most of my machines can use Zip drives to perform quick sneakernet
data transfer. Still easier and faster than burning CD's, although availability of a
fast network does negate their usefulness somewhat.
Ensoniq EPS with version 2.00 firmware. Go on, ask me how I know.
This shortcoming is fixed in the 2.40 firmware.
