[Oberon] Re. ATAPI Zip drive;

[shark at gulfnet.sd64.bc.ca]

Chris,

cg> Are you saying that NO [not Aos] can read/write Zip ?

Yes NO(Native Oberon).  

The drive connnects to the ribbon cable and works 
just as a fixed disk except for some longer delays.  

The driver is ATADisks.Mod.  With a recent enough 
release you will see ATAPI mentioned in the history 
comments.  Compliments to the authors for good work!

cg> IMO only the 'parallel port' version is relevant for
moving data between boxes.

AFAIK NO does not support parallel port Zip.

cg> ... poor hardware reliability.

Unlikely considering that the SCSI Zip was error 
free in the Mac.
