- "Backup to Zip Drive". My reply is thus...

- Hi Glenn,
-
-
- GY> Has anyone managed to use a Zip drive for backing-up? I am using
- GY> Ami-Back, on an A500 (512k chip) with a GVP A500HD + 4 megs memory, with
- GY> the Zip drive on the SCSI port. When I select the Zip drive as the
- GY> destination I get the message "Memory Error, Cannot Allocate Memory".
- GY> This even happens when only one file is selected for backup.
-
- GY> Any help, advice, ideas gratefully received!
-
- Well, I don't have any advice but I use a ZIP drive and AmiBack here all the
- time to backup my hard drives. In fact that is the main reason I bought the
- ZIP drive. It works great.
