How To Read an IOMEGA ZIP 100 Drive on Ubuntu Linux 12.04

As with most things computer there are times when old media formats appear and a need to retrieve the data. One such occurrence happened recently when several ZIP disks arrived. The IOMEGA ZIP drives were parallel port connected SCSI drives that were popular back in the late 90’s early 2000’s. They were great for backups and had more capacity that floppy disks. They are before USB attached drives came into being. So the question is how do I read these drives?

• Choose Hardware tab. Click on Device Manager button. 4 Find your Iomega Zip 100 USB Driver device in the list and press double click on the hdc device. Click Reinstall driver button. 5 Choose Install from the specific location and click on the Browse button.
• I have bought a used iomega zip 100 driver, trying to read some sold discs. Together I bought a parallel-to-USB adaptor so that the driver can be connected to by PC, running on Windows 10. However, the PC does not recognize the zip driver at all. I saw some community message suggesting an old Windows version might work with Zip drive.

Jan 12, 2018 This driver package for Iomega Zip 100 drives will work on most versions of Windows, except 95 and NT (see above). The package contains additional software needed for using and managing Iomega Zip drives (it is officially called IomegaWare).

Installation of IOMEGA

Installation with Ubuntu 9.10 and higher only require a single module to be loaded. Editing the /etc/module file and adding ppa is all that is required. This is the Parallel port driver. After editing /etc/modules reboot the system. Make sure to have the drive plugged in and powered on.

Once the system has rebooted we can check to see what was detected. We can run the following command.

Here we see the IOMEGA drive.

Attached devices:

Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: ATA Model: ST2000DM001-1ER1 Rev: CC26
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05

Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: TSSTcorp Model: DVD+-RW TS-L633C Rev: DW40
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 05

Host: scsi6 Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00
Vendor: IOMEGA Model: ZIP 100 Rev: K.0
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02

At this point all you need to do is insert a disk and Linux will auto-mount and you can now access the files.

1. Actually the IOMEGA Zip 100 drive came in a variety of interfaces. As you know there was a parallel port version (I used to own an Epson branded parallel port version that had a sort of greyish-beige case), and a SCSI version (both internal and external SCSI, I used to own one of the external SCSI (with a solid blue case, there were some external Zip 100’s that sold with a translucent blue case as well) ones which connected to a SCSI adapter card that you installed in the PC, it also could be daisy-chained with other SCSI devices by connecting them to the second 25 pin connector on the back of the drive), there was also an ATAPI version and an IDE version (ATAPI is not the same as IDE in this instance), I actually have 3 of the IDE ones still sitting in a box in my garage currently (none of which are suffering the dreaded “click of death” fortunately). The IDE version can even be connected to a USB2IDE adapter and functions great this way without the need to install any additional packages in Linux, or the need for any special software in Windows even. I haven’t yet tested it with a SATA2IDE adapter though to see if it works alright when connected to an internal SATA port. And there was actually a USB 1.1 version of the Zip 100 drive as well, though it was produced at about the time the Zip 250 was introduced as a successor to the Zip 100.

2. Hi,

   I am trying to read a syquest syjet 1.5 external scsi drive that is connected to the parallel port. Will these instructions allow me to read this drive or are there different instructions that I can use to access the syquest drive?

   Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

   • If you’re sure it’s a scsi drive and not a parallel port drive it will only work when connected to a scsi controller card. The 25 pin scsi connector may look the same as a parallel port connector but it does NOT support the same functionality. SCSI devices equipped with a 25 pin connector that looks like the 25 pin parallel port cannot simply be connected to the parallel port willy nilly. The pin configurations as well as the communication protocols used by the two ports are significantly different from one another to prevent them from working. Iomega sold a 25 pin ISA bus SCSI controller card specifically for use with their SCSI based devices. And while you may not be able to install an ISA bus card in today’s computers SCSI cards are still available to fit today’s computers and in addition to one of those you should only need to purchase a pin adapter to go from the D68/D50 pin external connector currently in use down to the D25 SCSI connector Iomega devices used. There are also USB to SCSI adapters available though they don’t seem to be very easy to locate (or very affordable either).

     • The Iomega drive I have is scsi but it came with a Iomega-designed cable to enable use of the scsi drive and the parallel port at the same time.

       Thanks,

3. I tried the instructions and the syquest drive does not show up when I run the ‘cat /proc/scsi/scsi’ command.

   Is there anything I can try? The syquest drive was purchased as new from ebay and came still wrapped in plastic.

   Thanks,

4. I am using v14.04 lts. I first tried to mount the syquest drive using those instructions first before searching the web and coming across your site.

   I’m going to try those instructions again and will let you know where I am running into problems which I will list below:

   I created the text file as instructed but when I type the following command: chmod +x paride’, I get the following error message: ‘chmod: cannot access ‘paride’, no such file or directory’. The text file paride is currently on the desktop.

   Should it be somewhere else or can the command be modified to point to file on the desktop?

   Thanks,

5. I was able to get to the desktop but when i type the command ‘chmod +x paride’ I get the same error message ‘chmod: cannot access ‘paride’, no such file or directory.

   The file is named paride.txt. I tried the command with and without the ‘.txt’ extension.

   Thanks,

6. I renamed the file to paride.sh but am getting the same error message: ‘chmod: cannot access ‘paride.sh’, no such file or directory’.

   Thanks,

7. Is there a command to list the contents of the desktop?

8. I renamed the file paride.txt to paride.sh. Using the ls command, 3 files are listed:

   paride.sh
   paride.txt~
   unknown document

   The file paride.sh is the only document on the desktop. I tried the ‘chmod’ command again on both listed files with the same result.

   Is it possible to send the paride file to you to review and test?

   Thanks,

9. Hi,

   As requested, I have run the commands that you have asked me to run. The results of the commands as copied from a terminal session is pasted below:

   arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$ cd ~Desktop
   bash: cd: ~Desktop: No such file or directory
   arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$ cd ~/Desktop
   arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$ ls
   Paride.sh Paride.txt~ Untitled Document~
   arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$ chmod 755 paride.sh
   chmod: cannot access ‘paride.sh’: No such file or directory
   arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$

   Please let me know what’s going on.

   Thanks,

10. I ran the command successfully after picking up on the case-sensitivity comment you made, then ran the script. I got the following errors below:

    arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$ sudo ./Paride.sh
    : not found: 2: ./Paride.sh:
    : not found: 5: ./Paride.sh:

    arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$

    Thanks for your help so far. We’re making progress slowly but surely.

11. Ok, I’ll play around with it and get back to you as soon as I have some results of my testing.

    Thanks,

12. Hi,

    When I run the dmesg command, I get the following info: “paride: epat registered as protocol 0″.

    When I run the command ‘modprobe epat # Syquest Protocol from a terminal line I get no errors.

    When I run the command ‘modprobe pd # Syquest Driver from a terminal line I get the following error message below:

    ‘ERROR: could not insert ‘pd’: Operation not permitted’.

    Any blank or non-execcutable line is the cause of the ‘not found: 2: ./Paride.sh:
    ‘not found: 5: ./Paride.sh:

    errors. I got rid of them by deleting the blank lines.

    The line ‘not found.ATAL: Module paride’ I’m not sure where it is coming from but I am guessing that it’s because there is no module called Paride.

    When I type in just ‘dmesg’, I get a lot of info about the system. I’m pasting the results of scanning for ‘pd’ and ‘syquest’ below:

    The scan for ‘syquest’ turned up nothing.

    As far as the if/then/fi issue, it looks like all of the if lines have a then and fi at the if condition.

    My next test was to comment out all of the conditional ‘if’ statements in the script, then add back each ‘if’ statement to see what happens.

    The results are below:

    arthur@arthur-T5082:~/Desktop$ sudo ./Paride.sh
    not found.ATAL: Module paride
    Inserting the necessary modules…
    modprobe: ERROR: could not insert ‘pd’: No such device

    ls: cannot access /media/Syquest: No such file or directory

    So far this is the results of my testing.

    Thanks,

13. set the port to bi-directional not ecp,
    then it works fine
