The QIC drives contained in many older machines are often defective, or it's expensive to impossible to get actual tapes for these drives. Sometimes, stock tape drives can be used also. This article documents which combination of machine, OS release, and drive has been tested so far.
| Drive | Server/OS | Tasks tested | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|
| HP DDS-1/2/3 | 9401-150/V4R5 | Save/Restore/BMR[1] | DIP-Switches set to default. |
| HP DLTVS 80[2] | 9406-S20/V4R4 + 2726 SCSI RAID-Controller | Save/Restore | SCSI-Error logged at IPL time. Works otherwise. |
| HP LTO1 | 9401-800/V5R2 | Save/Restore | SCSI-Error logged at IPL time. Works otherwise. |
| Conner CDT20004R-S | 9401-150/V4R5 | Save/Restore | DIP-Switches set to default. SCSI errors are logged for every initial access. Otherwise works. |
| HP DDS-1/2/3 | 9402-400/V4R2 | None. | DIP-Switches set to default. Drive not recognised in DST. |
