Tape backup not recognized by backup in Server Essentials 2012
I ordered the PowerEdge server with the built in Tape backup option. However when in the Server 2012 R2 Essentials dashboard when I try to setup back up it says "The Wizard cannot find any drives that are suitable for backup..."
I can open explorer see the drive, can even write to it by creating folders, etc. But the backup wizard will not see it?

I don't believe 2008 and beyond support tape natively for backups, which would mean you would need third-party software to use tape.
