Getting the Best of Both Worlds with Zip® and CD-RW™ Drives
The modern business has become increasingly reliant on sophisticated and graphics intensive on-line applications. They are confronted by the daily need to transfer and share data quickly and simply while at the same time achieve long term storage solutions.
This is now a reality with Iomega's® Zip® drives and CD-RW™ drives.
As an advertising agency known for its superb work in web site development, Euro RSCG recently placed a storage strategy that enables its web developers to share, create, transfer and backup important files with minimum fuss by combining Iomega's Zip® drives and CD-RW™ drives.
According to Math Grogan®, Interactive Designer at Euro RSCG, having the Zip® drive and the CD-RW™ side by side has significantly improved the way the interactive department operates.
"The Zip® drive allows us to transfer and share data easily. If we need to send a job to the print bureau or share information with our clients, we simply transfer the data from our hard disk to a Zip® disk. This means we can take it anywhere and work on it anytime.
"On the other hand the CD-RW™ drive with 650MB allows us to copy CD's, both audio and data, simply and quickly. The capability of writing and rewriting when archiving or distributing information is brilliant and economical." said Math.
"In the past backing up data onto a CD was a tedious process for us. We had to transfer data to the network and then burn it on a CD. By combining the Zip® drive and CD-RW™ drive, files can be copied straight from our Zip® drives to a CD-RW™, giving me more time to concentrate on more important issues," Math added.
Since its introduction five years ago there are now 32 million Zip® drives with virtually every type of computer connection available on the market. The CD-RW™ Drive is the Iomega® Zip® optical storage product that gives users the ability to back-up, archive, transport, share and create up to 650MB of data on a common CD format. It is available as an internal and external drive with the hot 'plug and play' feature.
"Now that we are using the Iomega® Zip® 250MB USB Drive and the CD-RW™ Drive together, we have more time, are more efficient and productive. Having the drives makes backing up, transferring or copying data easy and no longer dominates my work station or my time."
