Transporting Files on Zip Disks
Do you need a way to carry your work project or school work with you, but floppy disks are too small and CD's are
too hard to update? Iomega Zip drives and disks are a great way to take your data with you. A popular way of
transferring data from a hard drive onto a Zip disk is to drag-and-
drop the files. Most software programs have a
Save As feature that allows you to choose where you save your file to and what you want to name the file.
