Two weeks ago i spotted an ad for a SCSI Zip drive for free, was close to work, so sent a message.
Got a message the very next day to collect the drive.
The lady said she can give me some floppy disks also if required.
In the end i collected 10 packs of unused and sealed floppy disks, some new 250 Mb Zip disks, a pair of 100 Mb Zip disks and 3 Zip drives.
The SCSI was indeed a Parallel drive, and the two USB drives didn't worked (one had no activity at all, the other had a clicking head)
Today, i removed the head from the dead and swapped it with the working unit, but clicking one.
And got a working USB unit.
Never had one of those clear units, so is nice, the Parallel can be used for parts, and the PSU will be used as a spare.
I have given away some disks also.
