    Just a note - have you tried formatting the faulty disk using the format tool that comes with the iomega software? I had a 100mb zip disk that was showing click-death symptoms a few weeks ago. Formatting it seems to have eradicated the problem.

    Nope, I haven't tried that.

    I'll give it a go.
    Cheers.

    Kevin, what are you doing? ;)

    Try PC World? You'll almost certainly find PC-formatted Zip disks there.

    By the way, I got a Sony G420 on Thursday. ;)

    Compustore have 100Mb disks for about €17 each (no great discount for bulk purchase)
