They're pretty damn fast (also much faster reading/writing regular 1.44MB disks) and the electronic eject is just cool I still have a "new" Panasonic made LS120 drive double-pack bundle in the original box, complete with an ISA IDE controller (Promise FloppyMAX with its own BIOS) and four (still sealed) disks, as well as several used drives and a diskette box about half full with LS120 disks. LS120 is definitely cool, but kinda useless for transferring "large" files to old laptops and such, unlike those Zip100 drives which were available (and most common?) as parallel port versions, which pretty much all of those old laptops have. If you are serious about using these old kinds of removables, I would recommend LS120 "SuperDisks", M-O Drives (e.g bernoulli disks), or Jaz disks…I've had one Zip drive die with the click of death just last week Not fun.
