Dell recommends using the driver that is supplied with the operating system (INBOX) for proper operation
when the backup software does not provide a driver. Always consult the backup software documentation for
drive requirements. The IBM device drive is provided for failover purposes and backup applications that do
not permit INBOX drive usage.
