HI,
My apologies if this has been tackled before, but the search seems to be down at the moment. We've recently installed one of the new adr2 120 ide drives on a win XP pro system. Everything is working perfectly except the drive does not seem to be supporting compression. It will backup fine upto 60gigs at which point the media becomes full (We have selected 'use hardware compression' options). We have tried both xp backup and and tapeware, the problem is the same on both. When looking at the driver for the device in device manager the 'tape drive paramenters' tab has 'compression = false' and 'compression enabled = false'. These are unchangable - anyone have any ideas?
Much appreciated
Jules
