Was trying to restore my Windows 10 machine that serves as my home file server (RAID 5 array, separate from Win volume) by doing a clean install of Win 10. Previously, this box had Win7 running and the "free" upgrade to Win 10 was implemented with no problems. Retro 10 found all devices, no problems. Backups ran normally.
After a crash of the hard drive with the Win 10 system on it, whenever I do a clean reload of Win 10 the Quantum LTO-5 tape drive is not found or listed in Retrospect's "Devices". Windows Device Manager DOES see the tape drive and correctly lists it and shows the drive as working normally. In addition, the LSI HBA card (SAS) the tape drive is attached to is also listed correctly and show normal operation.
After upgrading to Retro 11 and now 11.5, the tape drive still does not appear in the "Devices" list after a clean install of Win 10. If I load Win7, no problems noted, the drive does appear in the devices list of Retro.
Is there something special about Win 10 that needs to be done to get Retro to find the Quantum LTO-5 drive?
Many thanks -
