Iomega ZipCD: Recommended for anyone

Date of Review:  Dec 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: Until something better comes along I highly recommend anyone having a rewritable CD drive of some kind.
Review: I bought my Iomega ZipCD External Drive in early 2001 (new on eBay for $171.50), because the disks of the of the Iomega Zip Drive that I was using were about $20 each, only had a capacity of 90-100MB, and often easily became corrupted and...

2x Audio Burner for Mac

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2002
The Bottom Line: Once again Mac users are left out of the technical loop and not told that the burner will only do 2x audio. Useful product but nothing great to brag about.
Review: I bought the Iomega 6X/4X/4X ReWritable USB External Zip Drive as a Christmas present for my wife. It was going to be a clean and easy way for her to compile tons of scanned images of old magazine ads and lots of swing music. For the most part, it's...

BEWARE IOMEGA!!!

Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2004
Review: IOMEGA products have a good reputation, but BEWARE if you purchase directly from the company and return an item for credit. Trying to get a refund is like pulling teeth, and they'll give you a huge runaround while glibly promising to 'investigate'...

iomega ZIPCD, good unit

Date of Review:  Dec 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: It works great for what it is.
Review: I bought this external CDRW drive to use with my Compaq Presario Laptop. Once I figured out that I could only burn a CD at 2X speed with it, it has given me no problems.

I have found out with other USB devices and a USB hub that USB can be...

Io - Mega Pricey, but works well

Date of Review:  Jul 22, 2002
The Bottom Line: Not too fast of a burner, but it does what it is suppose to. Easy to install and use. Buy it for $150 or less.
Review: The Install Procedure
---------------------
This external CDRW drive was really easy to install. You just pop the included install software in your computer and in a few clicks, it's installed and read to go. It comes with some Iomega...

Okay when it worked...

Date of Review:  May 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: Stay away, get something slightly more expensive instead. It will work for awhile, then just die.
Review: I bought this at a pretty cheap price, and it worked pretty well on my Mac when I finally figured out what type of CDs it likes (Maxell 650s). Then, all of a sudden, one day it stopped working. Whenever I tried to burn a CD or CD-RW, it just said CD...

don't buy it

Date of Review:  May 6, 2002
The Bottom Line: IT SUCKS
Review: Now I have been using the drive for more than a year. It is a terrible product: I have wasted many blank CDROMs. Buffer overrun problem is one of the major reasons. To avoid it (and it is not guaranteed!) you have to:
1. not using USB hub for...

Iomega not recommended.

Date of Review:  Mar 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: Don't buy Iomega if you can help it.
Review: Setup with this was about as easy as any external USB cdrw. The options for Mac users are limited. And Roxy Toast doesn't have the same feature set for Macs as for PCs. Always frustrating.

The software did it's thing fine. I didn't find...
