Title: How to make RAW image from Zip disk on mac?
Post by: Tension on May 14, 2010, 12:18:50 AM

I need to back up my ZIP 100 disks that I use with my Akai sampler.

I have the ZIP disk between my sampler and an old OS9 mac.

Can anyone recommend a program for OS9 that can therefore read a foreign filesystem on the ZIP drive, and save it as a .iso or .img or whatever really, so I could copy it back to the ZIP disk later.

Any help would be most appreciated!

Maybe Disk Copy?

Thanks!!

I managed to make the IMG file from the ZIP disk, but how can I restore the image back to another ZIP disk?

Disk Copy doesnt have a write option, unbelievably.
