Sony AIT SDX-450V Device Support in 8.6SBS Windows 2000

[Mike_Kolman]

I notice that the Sony AIT Turbo Drive SDX-450V is supported in 10.0, is it supported in 8.6 SBS as we were unable to get a standard AIT1 replacement drive after a failure and now that it is installed unable to fully recognize the drive type and cartridge type, b/u appears to be running ok, the tape ejects as if the job completes, but does not complete until an acknowledge is given.

Hello,

Please check whether the device is "tested" by backup Exec with the help of the list below:

If yes then please install latest veritas drivers.

Latest veritas drivers:

Document ID: 273887
VERITAS Backup Exec (tm) 10.0 - Device Driver Installer (20050115) - Includes Tape Driver Release (20041231) and Robotic Library Release (45) (Intel Only)

If the device is not tested in the hardware compatibility list then please install the latest OEM drivers.

What is the capacity of the tape?

Does the tape backup the data or just ejects without backing up data?
