Hi all, Just offering a few items here first before e-bay (will give to the weekend)
1 IOMEGA External Zip drive (parallel) works great on PC, never tested on Amiga.
1 internal Scsi Zip drive -currently on my A3000, system sees it, but I have never been successful in using it on WB3.5. (I am swapping everything Sunday)
1 external IMATION Superdisk 128 drive Parallel. Just got this in, not tested, looks like slight damage in shipping, the "eject" button is loose. With P/S cable etc. Looks ok, just a bit of TLC to get it 100%
I also am selling the A3000 Case which was moded for the ZIP. The bottom is quite banged up at the back, and the "power" LED is not working, even after re-solder.

Because I also posted on Amibay, They are all listed at $20, and the case $30, but I am still open.

If you just want the top part of the case with the bezil, that is no problem.

Here are some helpful links about ZIP drives and Amigas:

Not sure how well a parellel port ZIP drive will work, but definitely do not make the mistake of plugging in the parallel port ZIP into the SCSI port. Things will fry.

Just a quick update.
The transplant is done and a success.
The super disk is being tossed, just too much damage to mess around with.
Both Zip drives are still available.
I have pulled the Power supply from the banged up chassis, it works perfectly, but I want to blow out any dust before I let it go, as it has a lot of caked on dust on the fan.
You can all see pictures up on my blog (but they wer taken with the camera phone, so I apologize in advance for the poor quality).
I am still debating on what to do with the second floppy drive. It has the "wrong" plastic button on it, but it does work no problem.
PM me(with offers) if anything catches your fancy.
