Talk:Problem with failing Zip drive
I owned two Zip 250 drives for Ultrabay 2000. They were working well, until each became affected by a problem. There was no gradual decline in performance or indication of a oncoming problem. Both of them are made in Malaysia. I never used a Zip 100 Ultrabay device, but I see on eBay pictures that they were made in USA. If anyone has experienced a failed Ultrabay Zip 100, please report here.
This is anecdotal and original research: my USB Zip 250 drive is made in USA in November 1999, it sees more use than the Ultrabay drives, and it has not yet failed.
