Correct me if I am wrong but as I understand, Zip 100 drives only read 100mb discs while the Zip 250 drives read both 100mb AND 250mb discs right?

Damn, thanks for the quick response! But at this time, I have to buy a USB Zip drive for my PC so that I can load samples into my zip disks. I want a card reader but I can't afford it right now :( . I have a 2500 but really want to start using my xl a little too.

I believe the zip 100 drives can read both 100 & 250 discs, but it can only write to the 100 discs.

Only the zip 250 can handle 250MB disks. The zip 100 can neither read nor write them. Also, using 100MB disks in a zip 250 is very slow, due to the difference in formatting.
