   For the time, and due to the size of data back then, having a stack of 100MB SCSI Zip Disks felt like virtually unlimited storage. Nothing could stand in our way.

     @vorlaser Yes, it's a SyQuest drive that sounds like a mini jet turbine when activated. I use it for storage on only rarely when needed. I have a stack of backups.

     @amigalove What is the black internal drive? Syquest?

     @1024Bytes I've heard about it & read about it. But (knock on wood) after all these years, I've never experienced it personally. Talk about winning the lottery!
