I have seen similar problems and I found out to use Windows original
Adaptec driver believe it or not.
Other symptoms have been poor performance, TSM can't initialize Drives etc.
There is some notes about Adaptec on the IBM web, Tape Librarys.
One issue earlier was to set transfer speed to 80 MB in the Adaptec BIOS.

Hi All,
Setting up the third of four TSM servers on Win2000 with 3583-L36,
the define of the path for the library hangs. We have updated the
firmware on the adpatec scsi cards, upgraded the ultrium device drives to
the latest available from the ftp site (5.0.6.6, if memory serves), and
even reinstalled TSM, all to no avail. Windows sees all four devices, the
changer and three drives. If I define a manual library, I can then define
all three drives and their paths, but when define the library, the degine
library works, but the define path fails.
Anyone seen this before? Anyone have any ideas on how to trouble shoot
this? There are no indication anywhere I know to look for what is
wrong...TSM Console, Win2000 Event Viewer, the 3583 itself....
Thanks,
