I've installed an HP-SCSI tape back-up drive and it is displayed in the device manager box with the proper drivers loaded but I can't seem to get it reconized as a removable storage device in My Computer. What am I doing wrong?

The tape drive will not appear as a removeable storeage device. To use the tape drive, you need to use a backup application such as Arcserve or the windows backup utility (if your tape drive is compatible). You don't access it in the same way as a hard disk or CD drive. Hope this answers your question.
