Jaz

   <hardware, storage> {Iomega Corporation}'s drive which takes
   removable one or two {gigabyte} disk cartridges which contain
   conventional {hard disks}.

   Internal and external drives are available claiming an average
   transfer rate of 330 {megabytes} per minute - though that is
   dependant on the {SCSI} adapter, the parallel port adapter is
   unlikely to reach anything like this speed.  The Jaz drive was
   the successor to the company's more establistablished {Zip
   Drive}.
