Allen, >When I ran the test for the same period on a
Nomai disk, two blocks started showing errors and were marked bad. On the first few passes, the Nomai disk had not had any bad blocks.<

You were wise to discontinue testing the Nomai disk.
This is not a suffient sample to make a general conclusion,
(as you know), but this particular disk could get worse.
If there is a head cleaning disk for the ZIP, I would use it.

Allen,
Does your Zip Plus drive seem to work with the Nomai disks? (I don't mean destructive testing - just normal read/write)

I expected them to work with the original Zip drives, but I was hoping that IOM would have taken the opportunity to put the retroreflector to good use with the Zip Plus drives.
