How can I add USB ports to ML330

I have a ML330 and wish to use a Travan USB tape drive the server has no USB ports and I cannot get the machine to recognise a PCI USB card. Any ideas. Mail to : spare.bocks@ntlworld.com

Re: How can I add USB ports to ML330

Servers are quite picky when it comes to hardware so compatibility is always an issue. You can either continue to test different USB pci cards to see if the server will recognize them or use a regular scsi tape drive. It is less of a hassle as SCSI is hardware that servers usually use versus USB which is almost never seen on a server.
