I've been looking into purchasing some kind of big (capacity) removable media drive for backing up high-res scans, updaters, and so on. I had planned to go with a Jaz drive, but a…

Neither! Orb and Jaz are both based on Magnetic media. Both are subject to head crashes, and both have trouble with dust enterring the drive. If you need a format that reads …

Just a quick thank you for your input on this... it's strange how much more difficult the decision gets once it's your money and not your employer's. ;^) But to counter a couple o…

I understand that magnetic media drives like the Jazz and ORB are prone to head crashes and dust problems. However, I want to be able to store large media files (AvidCinema and ma…

We have had too many problems with ORB to recommend it. We too back up large M100 files and writing seemed to work but copying a file BACK from the ORB was a crap-shoot. We also …

I have had a Jaz drive for two years and only had one bad disk problem (Iomega replaced the disk free). I purchased an Orb SCSI drive thinking I could replace the Jaz. However, …

I have a PC user friend (but he's very nice to Macs, mind you) who owns an external 1GB Jaz and an internal Orb. I have been using the Jaz now that he got the Orb, and I am please…

I got a SCSI Orb when they first came out. I had some trouble at first, but much of this was because of changes (improvements) in the drivers. I lost all of the data on one of my d…

hello I'm looking for an unix-like for my LC2 a NeXTstep version (if it runs so well on my LC2) would be the best. Thank you for help me on my research ... of the truth ! (hi hi) …

i want to buy some surround sound speakers for my imac. Does it support true surround sound? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I apologize for the stupidness of my question, but I know nothing really about microphones. Myself and two friends are all out to buy new (external) microphones for our computers. …

They are all the same.
