The optional internal Zip drive accepts Zip disks, each of which can hold 100
megabytes (MB) of information. Your computer came with one Zip disk; you
can purchase additional disks at your Apple-authorized dealer.
With a Zip drive and Zip disks, you can do the following:
m
Extend your hard disk
Zip disks give you increased storage and easy access to
information. They are good for storage-hungry image, sound, and video
files that otherwise would take up space on your hard disk.
m
Move information
Zip disks offer complete mobility and can be moved and
used anywhere you have another Zip drive.
m
Back up your hard disk
Zip disks provide a convenient way to back up your
hard disk and archive important records.
m
Secure sensitive files
To keep sensitive or confidential information safe, you
can store it on a Zip disk and use the Tools application to assign a password
that must be used in order to read from or write to the disk.
This chapter contains basic information about working with Zip disks in the
internal Zip drive. Additional information is also available online in the
Iomega Tools folder on the CD-ROM disc that came with your computer.
