Iomega Pocket Zip Drive
The PocketZip drive was a drive made by Iomega in 1999 that used proprietary, small, very thin, floppy-like 40MB disks. It had no relation to the Zip drive. It was known as the "Clik!" drive until the click of death class action lawsuit regarding mass failures of Iomega's Zip drives. Thenceforth, it was renamed to PocketZip. A 100 MB Pocket Zip drive version had been in the works, was intended to be backwards compatible with the 40 MB disks, but ended up being vaporware and PocketZip itself would be discontinued as well.

—E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
“That night ended the day when history was written in Abilene. August 14, 1865 was the date. That was the end of the first drive on the Chisolm Trail. It was just the first of thousands of such drives bringing beef to the world.”
