There should be an overview article covering both versions, the 135 and 230MB drives -- 65.94.171.206 (talk) 08:24, 30 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

More technical info

Does anyone have more interesting technical info?

For instance, the disk in the EZ135 cartridges was a solid platter rather than a floppy disk as in the Zip drives. This is why it was faster, but also made it far more fragile and prone to damage in use, esp. when not treated properly.

A friend of mine had one and didn't realise you should run the eject utility thing to spin down and park the drive properly before ejecting it; This quickly led to most of his original disks getting noticeable scratch-rings after a few months use!
