HP C5683-03030
I have an IBM DAT drive that appears to be a rebrand of an HP. It calls itself a C5683-03030.
Does anyone know where I can find drivers for Windows NT for this device?
Thanks,
Jules

That should be a DDS4 drive.
This link for the driver for the HP DAT40i:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNum=C5686A&prodName=hp+surestore+dat40i+internal&locale=en_US&taskName=download+drivers+%26+software&taskId=8418&prodSeriesId=63890&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesName=hp+surestore+dat40+drives
Not a guarantee that it will work... but worth a try.
HTH,
Vince

Vince,
I've tried that already and the driver doesn't work. However I'm sceptical about the correctness of switch settings on the device itself. I think it was used with a unix server previously and I can't seem to get the thing to work. Oddly, onthe unit it has a sticker that says "Switches disabled" which is slightly odd.
Jules.

Re: HP C5683-03030
On which server will the drive be used?
These are the switch settings... are a bit different for a few machines.

Just a normal PC style box. Currently using a symbios logic 53c875 controller.
Thanks,

Re: HP C5683-03030
Follow the document I gave you. Switches should be all on except switch 3 off for a normal PC.

Re: HP C5683-03030
I've tried that, and that doesn't make it work either.
Any idea why that could be?
Thanks,
Jules.

Re: HP C5683-03030
IBM do not supply drivers for NT for this product.
Can I frig the firmware for a driver to make it work?
Thanks,
Jules.

Re: HP C5683-03030
I thought that might be the case. Do you know what I have to do to the driver to make it work. I've played with the .inf settings but have yet to to acheive any success.

Re: HP C5683-03030
I have a same tape drive and have trouble to install on Windows 2k server. Would you please let me know which driver are you used? Where I can download it? And where in the inf file are you adding the line: 'HPDAT_TAPE = "IBM ", "C5683-03030"'?
Thanks.

Re: HP C5683-03030
You need to talk to IBM, but I have no expectation of them helping you in this particular instance since you are trying to use specific hardware for other than its specific purpose.
Unless anyone is willing to prove these are not Type 7206 DAT drives.
Thanks,
