An unknown error occurred on device “HP 1. V-79-57344-34029 - A hardware error occurred.
Job fails at random places in the backup job and all data is from the local server - No agents, no Exchange, all local data.

At this point I am convinced that it is not SCSI bus related due to the lack of events posted in the Event Viewer / System log as well as the full tape write and read over the SCSI bus with the Exabyte tools.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
