Hello Millie!
Sorry, I can't help you with PC Mac LAN, but I suggest that you spend the extra
money and buy a Jaz drive or CD writer. I am using a 377, and the Zip disk only
holds 1 or 2 runs (each run 40 - 60 MB). I'm sure for a 3700 the files would be
much bigger. I am very pleased with the Jaz disks for storage.
