is it a real scsi zip drive or the pc parallel version?  if it doesnt say scsi you can cause damage.  if it is scsi, make sure you turn on termination on the zip drive.  if it doesnt have a termination switch its not a scsi zip.

Also zip tools must be installed on the hard disk, or disk inserted before computer power on with extention on the disk to show up.

if you says its parallel and scsi? , never seen those personally.

It is a "real" SCSI Zip drive, though its the Zip100 Plus in that it supports both SCSI and Parallel, just depends on how the cable is attached, however there is only a SCSI ID selection on the back and no termination option. And the Zip Tools are installed, I did that before hooking the drive up.
