Iomega Corporation (later LenovoEMC) [3] [4] [5] was a company that produced external, portable, and networked data storage products. Established in the 1980s in Roy, Utah, United States, Iomega sold more than 410 million digital storage drives and disks, including the Zip drive floppy disk system. [6]
Iomega also produced a line of internal and external recordable CD drives under the Zip brand in the late 1990s, called the ZipCD 650. It used regular CD-R media and had no format relation to the magnetic Zip drive. The external models were installed in a Zip-drive-style case, and used standard USB 1.1 connections.

In theory this makes the Bernoulli drive more reliable than a contemporary hard disk drive, since a head crash is impossible. The original disk cartridges came in capacities of 5, 10, and 20 MB; they are 8.23 x 11.02 x 0.71 inches, [ 1 ] about the size of a standard piece of letter paper but thicker.
