Stephen: "and by the way Zip disks are the same media as floppies and they can get corrupted too."

What *can't* get corrupted?

Yes, a Zip disk is "just" a floppy.
THAT'S why I like them so much!

Frankly, they're no good for doing full disk backups (of anything over a 340Mb HD.) I use my tape drive for that.

I use my Zip drive to back up important files like source code and financial data every day.
