No. The Apple Hi-Speed SCSI interface allows ejecting and swapping
removable disks. With a partitioned Zip disk (or CD-ROM), you have to lasso or
shift-click to highlight all the partitions and drag them to the trash to eject
the disk. (As long as one partition remains on the desktop, the disk stays in.)
There is no need to turn off the computer to swap disks.
