We have several LS-120 drive installed at work using EaglesNest arrangements
[swapable drives].  We are replacing all of them with zip drives.  The
reason is that the LS-120 drives seem to work much slower than advertised.
[5 minutes just to view the directory structure, much less actually copy
some files].

As near as I can tell
that means either the Iomega Zip or Imation LS-120 drives.
What about the click of death ? Is it overrated ? Has Iomega cleared
up that problem ? Does the LS-120 have a similar flaw ?
