Zip® Tips

Here are a few tips you’ll want to keep in mind to care for your Zip® drive and disks!

Always turn on power to your computer before inserting a Zip® disk.

CAUTION If a disk is inserted without the power on, and power is then applied, it could damage the drive. M

Never force a Zip® disk into or out of the drive.

Never use ordinary 3.5" diskettes or floppy head-cleaning disks in your Zip® drive. They will damage your drive. Only use 250MB or 100MB Zip disks with the Zip logo on them.

CAUTION Never put anything into your Zip® drive except Zip disks with the genuine Zip 250 or Zip 100 symbol. Using disks that do not have the genuine Zip symbol may cause damage to your drive or loss of data. M

Avoid exposing Zip® disks to direct sunlight, high temperature, moisture, and magnetic fields (such as from monitors or speakers).
