Bernoulli Drive Information

Bernoulli disks are available here! The internal model fits inside the CD-ROM bay. The form factor is 5.25".

Rear view

Has cooling fan, two Centronics 50 pin ports, power on/off switch, built-in SCSI terminator, SCSI selector switch in the rear and a PC port for parallel port connections.

Front view

Has the handle in the front for portability. Comes with a new 230MB Bernoulli disk with software for Macintosh and power cord included.

Bernoulli Dual Unit Case
with two 150MB Drives installed SOLD OUT

The case itself can accomodate two Bernoulli's, CDROM, CDR, CDRW or any 5.25 inch device of the height of a CD-ROM. This case is equipped with two 150MB Bernoulli drives and you get 4 new blank Bernoulli disks with it.

Case features include:

Quiet cooling fan
Power supply 
SCSI selector switch 
Two C50 SCSI ports 
AC power cord

Software is available for the Macintosh if you need it, (download it, here). PC Exchange will work too! This is a control panel inside the control panels folder.

Bernoulli 150, 90 & 44 Product Information.
Is it really faster than a Zip100 & more reliable?
How many Zip disks have you thrown away?

What is it? And is it faster than the Zip100?

The Bernoulli 90, or Bernoiulli 90 PRO is a 5.25 inch removable disk drive.
The Bernoulli 150 can read & write 150 & 90MB disks.
The Bernoulli 230 can read & write 230 & 150 & 90MB disks.
This drive is a SCSI device that may be used with both PC and Macintosh systems.
The Bernoulli 90 will read and write to any Iomega 90MB disk, and is read-only compatible with 44MB disks.
The Bernoulli 44 is an older version of the above that can read and write to 44MB disks.

The Bernoulli 90 MB and 44 MB drive is available in the following configurations:

Insider 90 PRO ,Insider 44. An internal model for the PC that uses an internal 5-inch drive bay.
Transportable 90 PRO, Transportable 44. A single external drive that supports SCSI daisy-chaining or our Parallel Port Inerface (PPA3).
Dual 90 PRO, Dual 44. A dual external drive that supports SCSI daisy-chaining.

Note that both the Transportable and Dual models provide switchable SCSI ID and termination.
