Dual SCSI tape drives

G

Guest

I am attempting to perform backups on 2 systems via a single machine using Win2K builtin backup software. The primary system was purchased with a dual SCSI card. I have 2 separate DDS4 tape drives (one connected via cable to each connector/port). When configuring my backup, only one tape drive is available for selection

Under System, Hardware, 2 tape drives are present..

How can I make both tape drives available to the backup (built-in) software?

You don't.

You need to BUY software. There are severe limitations on stock backup software.
