>>I spoke to Iomega this morning on the subject of the ZIP drives read/write head and disk surface. The answer was YES, the head DOES contact the surface of the disk.

Just thought you would be interested.<<

Cheeky -

You bet I'm interested! This is contrary to what I have been told before, also by sources at Iomega.

I am going to investigate further. To whom did you speak?
