I've had better luck than you,apparently, with the DITTO Easy3200, though it's
too small and slow to be of use any longer.

It's just another IOMEGA boondoggle, though. I avoid any contact with IOMEGA
anymore, as not one of their products, and I have dozens, has ever lived up to
their widely publicized claims. They clearly lie about their device
characteristics, and freely admit it if pressed.

I wouldn't rely on them to tell me the truth about anything, including whether
a competitor's media will work.
