Have you tried just using the Server2003 drivers? 2008 will handle most earlier drivers.<br />
I haven't tried with an autoloader, but certainly on std LTO drives I've seen no compatibility issues.<br />
Hold on. . .did I read this correctly. . do you say a <b><u>DAT</u></b> drive?!?!?<br />
<br />
The other thing you could try is compatibility mode.<br />

does the seagate 432 sutoloader (dat 72) work with windows server 2008r2? <br />
Anyone know where I can find a driver? Going nuts trying to find one. <br />
If not, I may try and set up a virtual win 2003 box on the win 2008 box... but obviously I'd rather run it native. <br />

Anyone?

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Storage

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.
