Create a Multimedia Library - Images, Sounds, and Video
4
Because of their high capacity, removability, and random access, Zip disks are
ideal for storage-hungry image, sound, and video files. Clips can come from
a variety of sources, including scanners, CD-ROM's, and video input devices.
You can create and store multimedia presentations and demonstrations,
including video, that you can replay directly from the Zip disk.
Archive Your Important Records
5
Do you need to keep files for a number of years? Archive your valuable files
on a Zip disk and store them in a safe place. Whenever you need them,
you can access them quickly.
Get Organized
6
If you work on lots of different projects or with many different clients, try
segmenting your work onto different disks. You can organize your
information by project, client, date, or whatever. Zip disks give you the
capacity to get all associated files onto a single disk. Then, switching
between projects and customers is as simple as inserting another Zip disk.
Secure Sensitive Files
7
To keep sensitive or confidential information safe, store it on a Zip disk and
use your Zip Tools software to assign a password that must be used in order
to read from or write to the disk.
