i need a little help with my new tape drive

i used to have an internal travan tape drive, scsi, which showed up as 
/dev/st0, i recently aquired an external dds3 drive, sony sdt-9000, so i 
took my internal drive out of the system and plugged the dds drive into it

kudzu picked up this change and made corrections to my system 
configuration, however this new drive does not show up as /dev/st0 nor 
does it show up as /dev/tape or any other of the dozens of different 
devices i tried, i had to make this because i was severely limited by 
how much i can backup on to the trusty old travan

when linux boot's there is no problem finding the drive, it show up 
between my hard drives

the first hard drive is id 0, /dev/sda
2nd hard drive is id 2, /dev/sdb
3rd hard drive is id 4, /dev/sdc
sony sdt tape drive is id 6, no device is given here
4th hard drive is id 10, /dev/sdd

i  am running redhat 7.0 with kernel 2.2.16

any help or pointer as to where i can find a solution to my problem 
would be greatly appreciated

thx
