  Zip drive -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Generally, higher capacity drives also handle all lower capacity media, although the 250 MB drive is much slower than the 100 MB one to write data on a 100 MB disk.
The 750 MB drive, however, cannot write to the 100 MB media, which is the cheapest and most common.
One side effect of this implementation is that, on some drive models, it is possible to trick the software into allowing access to a different disk than it believes to be in the drive, thereby bypassing the password protection.

 Zip drive   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
The Zip system was based loosely on Iomega's earlier Bernoulli Box system; in both systems, a set of read/write heads mounted on a linear actuator flies over a rapidly spinning floppy disk mounted in a sturdy cartridge.
This gave a drive that held much more than a regular floppy, with data transfer rates and seek times (about 1 megabyte/second and 28 milliseconds on average) that (while not directly competitive with hard drives) were much quicker than a standard floppy drive.
By this time, numerous people had reliability problems with their Zip drives (especially the click of death), and the relatively high cost per megabyte of the proprietary cartridges was becoming unattractive, compared to the falling costs of CD-R and DVD±RW technology.

 Jef Raskin - Coanda Effect: Understanding Why Wings Work
The reasoning--though incomplete--is based on the Bernoulli effect, which correctly correlates the increased speed with which air moves over a surface and the lowered air pressure measured at that surface.
While Bernoulli's equations are correct, their proper application to aerodynamic lift proceeds quite differently than the common explanation.
The calculation is, of course, an approximation since Bernoulli's equation assumes nonviscous, incompressible flow and air is both viscous and compressible.
