How to use SCSI DAT Device in Windows 7

[jmcollin92]

Hi there,

I succeed in installing a SCSI controller (Adaptec AHA 3940 AU) and and SEAGATE DAT device (cf. Adaptec 2906 SCSI windows vista 64 bit driver needed urgent - PlanetAMD64 if your are interested), but I didn't find how to use this device in Windows 7.
Backup and restore application don't recognize this device. The help sais that cartridge DAT cannot be use to make backup (This is the only use of cartridge DAT ... ).

Thank you for your answer ... I would like to use my old backups.

Still no idea ? Nobody makes backup one DAT Drive ?

The Windows 7 backup application does not support backup to tape media (neither does Vista). You may be able to use the DAT drive with 3rd party software (e.g. Acronis Backup or the software that came with the DAT drive).

Thank's for your reply. The problem is that Win XP does and so my backups are unusable...
I don't know why stopping backuping on DAT drive ... It was so simple and secure.
