You mean Zip or Jazz? Zip is 250MB and is more a floppy than backup medium.
I did have problems with USB-ZIP and IDE-ZIP - the disks written by them were not compatible between them, they could only read the disks writen by themselves.
Both worked out of the box with debian/sid custom kernel.

don't know what the internals of the USB Zip drive look like, but I've seen quite a few people reporting problems with USB-IDE interface type hard drives. No experience of them myself.
Is there any particular reason for using USB? I'd have thought that backing up over a network to a fixed disc would be preferable.
