Disk Eject in Case of Power Loss
The Zip drive must be powered on for normal disk insertion and
removal. If you need to eject a disk during a power failure, disconnect
the power supply from the Zip drive and push a straightened paper clip
into the emergency disk eject hole on the back of the drive.
CAUTION
Never remove a disk manually while the power supply
is connected to the Zip drive. Never force a disk into or out of the
Zip drive as this could damage the drive.

Security Locking Port
Security Locking Port
To secure your Zip drive, there is a security locking port on the back
of the drive. A special cable that connects to the security locking
port is available at most electronic stores. This cable can be used to
secure the drive to a desk, table or other equipment that is difficult
to move.
