data storage device developed by
Iomega, similar to the Standard 1.44" floppy drive. What makes
the Iomega zip drive unique is its capability to hold up to 100 MB of
data or 250 MB of data on new drives, and the wide use of these drives. Because
the zip diskettes are cheap media and commonly found, Zip Drives became very popular in late
1990s. Later, the Zip drives became less popular with the larger storage
capabilities, uses, and cheaper CD-R and
CD-RW
drives and discs.
Below is a graphic image of an
Iomega Zip diskette. This diskette is bigger than the standard
floppy diskette and is made out of a lot harder plastic.
