Where are all the DVD writers and Zip drives?
The table below shows the location of all the DVD writers and Zip drives. Not shown are about two dozen CD writers – you should have no problem finding one of them. Also note that the laptops “Abbe” (our presentation PC) and “Airy” (in KLS) both have DVD-RW drives. Please note that while Zip 250 drives can read Zip 100 disks, a Zip 100 drive cannot read a Zip 250 disk! When creating a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM that you intend to be portable, be sure to close the writing session and write-protect the disk. You should be offered this option before the drive will eject your disk. Media for these drives is stored in the grey cabinet in the lab conference room (the old “Setup” computer room), or you can get it from Vince Needham in Room 28. If we run out of something or you take the last disk, please tell me so that I can get more!
