HP USB DAT72 tape drive not showing in My Computer

[nick logan]

After having problems with Data Protector Express, I have decided to use a different backup solution.

The HP USB DAT72 Drive is not appearing in "My Computer." Is it supposed to? Can I make it appear there?

It won't show you in my computer.

I will show you in device manager.

Nick.

your device is USB, but is a storage (back up device) it does not behaves as storage in/out device (id. HDD or USB memory stick).

So you will not see it on my computer, only on device manager, then you use any back up software in the market to make it work.

regards, hope the answer clears some of your questions.
