How can I get it to work on a Windows 2000 Professional System. The system recognizes the drive. It shows up in device manager as an HP 88780 SCSI Sequential but it has a yellow exclamation indicating a problem. It has been set up as SCSI ID 0 and the SCSI Controller runs other SCSI Drives fine. There does not seem to be a driver installed. I tried downloading the HP Library Tape Toolkit and it doesn't support the device.
Dear Sir, Could You help me please to buy a one HP7980 tape Reader?, Where can find the one?Do You know web addressed? As a last question, does it Your HP7980 product support 800 NRZI density setting? Thank You
Sorry to tell you, but the 7980 does not do 800BPI. Furthermore, it is no longer sold. Reel-to-reel tape drives seem to have become obsolete in every sense of the word.
