All seems to go well, the drive is recognised and NTBackup backs up, but when it goes to verify the backup, after a long time, it reports "Hardware failure" and won't read any of the tape.
I have toggled the TERM PWR jumper and it makes no difference. The LTT tests just hang. The card claims to have automatic termination, but I cannot find terminators on the tape drive - does it need termination?
The tape drive is the only device connected to the card.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Solutionthe autotermination feature is just active to terminate internaly(controller side) the bus.
the Power terminator has nothing to do whith scsi termination, it will provvide a hookup for the 5Volts in active terminators when the distance from the source may cause voltage dropping, usualy with long cables >12meters.

Re: Surestore DAT24 won't verify backups - does it need termination?
In the early drive, there was the possibility to put an array of resistor directly on the internal drive, and this was an internal terminator.
they decided succesively to remove this feature on the next generation, I do not know why, but I think that it is because there was a lot of overtermination on the bus, and as all the HP servers came with a terminator on the cable, if you attach several scsi device on the bus you do not have to take care about the terminator for each device

Re: Surestore DAT24 won't verify backups - does it need termination?
I would make sure the ribbon cable is terminated cable, and TERM PWR Jumper need to be jumped.
Run L&TT and update firmware and Run a Read/Write test.
Download L&TT from here: http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/ltt/index.html
