Hi !

I'm not sure if you have or even know about these things but...

There are two companies that makes Ultrabay ZIP-drives (ZIP insiders).

They both promise DOS/Windows/Win9x/WinNT support but none of them
supports OS/2. If have sneaking feeling that a Ultrabay ZIP is
identical to a ATAPI ZIP and that the same drivers applies.

This would mean that the drives should work great with Warp4 FP5
or later but 1) I dont want to shell out the money to test and
2) the companies seems uninterested to test themselves.

So have you tried or do you know anyone that has an ultrabay ZIP
with OS/2 ??

Thanks !
