That was a pretty good deal for the drive. I think the discs were around $10 each. I still have a FireWire portable Zip drive around somewhere.

But look at the size man, that's just 100MB there, so less.

It was a great improvement over the 3.5” floppy, which was the standard for portable data storage at the time.
