Iomega Zip Disks

[Harrison]

What is the biggest size disk you can get??

Largest Zip Disks were 750MB. These were the last drives made and quite rare compared to the most popular 100MB drives.

iomega also made a few newer removable drive systems, but most are based around HD technology rather than floppy drive technology (as the Zip was). If you are interested in finding a secure removable disk then the later drives such as Rev and Clik are worth you looking at.

Hmm, sounds interesting I worry about my iPod library going down and having to reenter all my cds

I've been using an iPod Nano recently (girlfriend's old one) and have managed to completely avoid needing to use iTunes. I've instead been using Media Monkey and it works perfectly. It detects the iPod being connected, showing the device with full control over the contents, and you can then just copy songs to and from the device using Media Monkey. Nice and easy, and Media Monkey is much nicer to use than iTunes ever will be. It's also easy to back up its database.

Hmm, I see I see. Can I import my playlists on2 Media Monkey from iTunes??

[Harrison]

Well, the iPod I'm using was originally setup using iTunes on my GFs laptop, and when I connected it to my PC I could see and access the playlists and songs already on it, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Sweet, so I can just download it from their website yes?

Have a look in The Vault. I added a full version of the program in there recently.
