Who made the original 1GB (Maybe 2GB?)drive cartridge

bought them out and trashed the product (I think they may have renamed the Syquest drives
to Jazz or something).
But yes, the 100MB zip drives in my experience were quite reliable.
The horror stories I heard later with the damaged disks tearing the read
arm, etc were with the later models from what I recall.
Any idea what serial number series began the "bad" drives (or started the
good ones?)
