Hi 

 

We have an LTO-5 Ultrium 3000 tape drive that is connected to a PROLIANT DL385p Gen8 server.

 

Server OS: Windows server 2012 R2

In Device Manager it shows that the tape drive is installed and connected properly, but Tape Tools won't detect it.

I downloaded the latest version of Tape Tools that I could find, but the problem still exists. I can't find any solution online to help me with this problem.

 

Please assist

Hi:

 

HP split into two companies a few years back and tape drive support is handled by the HP Enterprise (HPE) corporation.

 

The support forum for tape drives can be found at the link below...
