RE: Iomega Reliability Ancedote. Here's a story that was posted over on the Motley Fool board about the reliability and durability of Jaz cartridges: ----------- As you know, several Jaz drives were stolen from our group. The cartridges were left behind and later seized by the authorities for fingerprints. We had no chance to copy all of work files - so we were most anxious to get them back. When we did, we were horrified to learn how they make fingerprints these days. They sprayed the entire cartridge with superglue vapor - then viewed the surface in UV light. I was afraid to even try to open the cartridge for fear it would ruin the brand new drive - but we had to try because there was 3 months of work stored there. Lo, and behold, the drive cranked away and we copied all of the files off the "superglued" cartridge. DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME! ----------- - Michael Coley - wwol.com
