I have several working that I still use with vintage computers. Retro Macs can boot from the scsi version and it's way faster then the PC parallel port version <3

I do remember hearing about the PowerMac G3 (the blue one) that supported Zip disks. That's all I remember about them, unfortunately.

My old PMG3 (beige, the first one) came with a Zip drive. I still have that machine, and the Zip drive in it still works.

Memory unlocked! I thankfully never had any issues with them. I too called flash drives zip disks for a while, but eventually stopped.
