Re: New Server intall Sony Tape Unit

Can you try it with a new SCSI cable ( incl. Terminator). Please verify TP is not set.

Re: New Server intall Sony Tape Unit

The solution is that the HP Unit would not allow a Sony tape unit to work on it. Had to install a third party SCSI card to run the tape unit. Apparently if you do not pay the extra $200-300 for an HP brand tape unit you will pay someone else for a universal PCI SCSI bus card.
This really makes me wonder about future HP Server units...... will any hardware other than HP work in it> figure not.
