SUMMARY
If you attempt to use a SONY SDT 5000 SCSI tape backup drive on an
Adaptec AHA-1510 SCSI host adapter, the device may appear to function
incorrectly, or to log errors during operation.
MORE INFORMATION
The SONY SDT 5000 SCSI tape drive and the Adaptec AHA-1510 SCSI host
adapter are both on the Microsoft Windows NT Hardware Compatibility
List (HCL). However, the use of these two devices together is not a
supported configuration. This is documented in the HCL as a subnote
to the Sony SDT 5000 tape drive.
The drive may also have problems when used with the other Adaptec
controller cards of the same series that use the AIC-6360 chipset.
Some of adapters that use this chipset are: AVA-1505, AVA-1515,
AHA-1520, and AHA-1522.
The hardware components mentioned in this article are manufactured by
vendors independent of Microsoft. Microsoft makes no warranty, implied or
otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
