Onstream ADR50 tape backup drivers anyone?
I have some archives on ADR50 tapes that I need to access. The company went out of business years ago and I have lost my Windows 2000 drivers. I have the necessary scsi ADR 50 tape deck, but need the drivers. I can't find them online. Anyone have a good copy I could get my mitts on?

This webpage suggests that the drive works with the standard Linux "st" tape drive driver: http://osst.sourceforge.net/product_table.html Maybe boot to a live Linux distro? -- __ __ #_ |\| | _# |

I may just have to do that, if I can't come up with a workable Windoze driver! I found this compatibility list on the archive.org copy of the OnStream website: http://web.archive.org/web/200103081...are/index.html Unfortunately the form required to access the free software downloads means the OnStream software wasn't archived, but some of the other software may be available. In particular, I downloaded and installed (on this PC in fact, although I'm booted to Linux right now) a version of TapeWare some years ago. I might be able to find the installation package, though it should still be online somewhere (a web search for "TapeWare 6.2 download" shows some promise, but I'll leave you to look through the results). -- __ __ #_ |\| | _# |
