Hi There,

I have a HP Dat72 tape drive (SCSI) the SCSI card i have is Adaptec 2120s now i have plugged just the tape drive into the SCSI card and gone into the BIOS of the card to see if the tape drive is picked up, The tape drive is picked up on ID3, now when i boot into windows im not able to see the tape drive to install any drivers or to run any backups, I have looked in device manager and it does not show anything to do with a tape drive in there.

Does anyone know why that is? or has anyone had the same problem.

Cheers
 
both the SCSI card and tape drive are supported with my OS, in device manager it see's the SCSI card fine just not the tape drive there is no yellow marks in device manager.

i dont understand SCSI very well but i did have 2 hard drives on SCSI and they worked fine
