SCSI’s are SO 20th century!
I wanted to buy a 2 Gig JAZ drive to store my musical compositions, but was told they were recalled for spontaneous combustion!
Thanks for the memories, Laz :-)

Boy those are old handles from the past. I was lurking at that time and didn’t join until November.

I remember the Iomega zip drives. Hundred MB disks - till the “click of death”. Off to buy another drive.

My recording console (The Roland VS880) had only a half gig on its hard drive...enough for one optimized song with 8 tracks (including lots of ping-ponging!), so I had to save the song to another drive as soon as it was finished so I could clear the decks and start a new one.
And yes, the JAZ drive was made by Iomega! I remember now that you reminded me.
