Connecting the SCSI Tape Drive

Before You Begin 3

In addition to the contents included with your external tape drive, you

need the following items to install your external SCSI tape drive:

• A SCSI host bus adapter that is properly installed and configured in a

host computer

• Backup application software that supports the external tape drive.

For a list of the latest backup software applications tested with the

external DAT 160 tape drives, please visit our Web site at

www.quantum.com/support.

Note: It is important to ensure that you connect your drive to a

USB 2.0 port. The drive will work on a USB 1.1 port but

performance will be severely degraded.
