iomega Zip250 with A4000T
« on: November 26, 2009, 08:13:44 AM »
This morning I got myself a scsi external Zip250 drive which I would like to use with my A4000T. It seems I need a different cable than the one it came with. I also got myself a few 250 zip disks elsewhere.

A few questions :)

1. What kind of cable or adapter will I need to hook it up with the A4000t?

2. What kind of software will I need?

3. On the Zip disk there is "PC" written.... does it mean its PC formatted or its something else?

Thanks!

I checked- it comes with IomegaTools (for Zip and Jaz).

Can some one check if there is a device in storage in 3.9 that I have to mount to be able to use the zip?

This is the back of the A4000T. Looking at the SCSI connector, thats a 25 pin one?
