Emax

Hey Cruising,

I use 2 Zip 100's myself.  It takes a few minutes to format each of my Zip
100 discs.  I don't know how long the 250's will take to format to be
honest.  I say, give it an hour, if it is not done formatting by then, you
know there is most likely a problem.  Also, you should not rely only on ZIP
discs.  Get yourself a SCSI Hard Drive as well to back up all your sounds to
because Zip drives are often very unreliable.

Good luck!
