As strange as it may seem, you write to a zip disk using a zip drive...
Zip drives are pretty much out of favor now, everyone is using DVD's, flash drives and external hard drives.
But if you need to read an old zip disk, see if you can find an old I-Omega zip drive. I would offer to sell you mine but it's long gone.
