Solutiondo you use HP MO disks? Try checking library with LTT http://www.hp.com/cposupport/information_storage/support_doc/lpg50128.html . Generate support ticket and attach it to your next reply

Re: 9.1GB tape formatted only to 4.1GB -> Optical Jukebox 600MX on Win2K
Yes, I use C7983A MO disks. Here is the sticket attached. Trying to use the HP L&TT tool I get a warning message telling me that I need to install Service Pack 3 for Win2K. Is this a real issue?

Re: 9.1GB tape formatted only to 4.1GB -> Optical Jukebox 600MX on Win2K
2. Although the unit has 4 drives and 63 slots, I only have 1 disk inserted in drive 4 which is seen as logic drive F: within my system (the other three drives without disks are G:, H:, I:, respectivelly). Could this be a possible explanation why the "library reports 4 internal drives, but only drive #4 is on the bus"?
3. This might be a silly question but how can one use both sizes of the disk? Are you saying that only one size was formatted? OK, I looked at the disk and unlike a normal diskette, the disk can be switched on the other side and can be inserted again. I believe this is the answer.
4. I will update the firmware to version 1.14.
Thanks Eugeny for your time.

Re: 9.1GB tape formatted only to 4.1GB -> Optical Jukebox 600MX on Win2K
If you have many MO disks you can insert 3 more disks in drives 1-3, having 3 more volumes at a time (each ~4.5GB in size). I think drives 1-3 are not appeared in LTT because they have not assigned IDs or were disabled.
Manuals are here http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DocumentIndex.jsp?contentType=SupportManual&docIndexId=3124&locale=en_US&prodSeriesId=33783&prodTypeId=12169

Re: 9.1GB tape formatted only to 4.1GB -> Optical Jukebox 600MX on Win2K
Then you can use front panel to insert disks into drives, and all these 4 disks will appear in disk administrator as ordinary hard disks. Then you can create NTFS of FAT partitions on each of these disks and use then independently (like G: H:, I:, K:) or you have possibility (I did not try it) to organize RAID5 creating dynamic volumes on the disks.
Good luck!
