Formatting a Jaz disk

[Mark D. Chapman]

I have recently acquired an old Jaz drive with 3 disks. Having been 
told that one of the disks was wonky I set out to reformat it using 
iomega's tools. The disk promptly failed to format 4 times. Not 
surprisingly Apple's utility didn't recognize the disk. However, 
after 3 tries Silverlining initialized the disk just fine. My 
question is:

Is there a problem using a non-iomega driver with the Jaz drive?

I could reformat using iomega's utilities but, given my problems, I 
would like to leave well enough alone.

Mark

P.S. If anybody has Jaz disks for sale really cheap I would be interested
