LTO5 Ultrium 3000 SAS Int Tape Backup

I just purchase a HP ML350p with an internal tape without any tape backup software.  I am totally new to the operation of this system.  I have installed Windows 2008 R2 and hope to use Windows backup to backup the data. 

 

I checked the device manager and the Ultrium5 tape seems to be properly installed, but I could not find any drive letter associated with the tape.  Is it possible or necessary to associate the tape with a drive letter?

 

I launch Windows backup and test it with backup once option, select custom backup and the folder I want to backup.  The two options I have are the drive letter and remote share server MyFileServer\SharedFolderName

 

Thanks in advance for your help.
