This *might* be useful..
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21393009
..particularly..
http://www-01.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/IBM_TSM_Supported_Devices_for_AIXHPSUNWIN.html

Please bear in mind the page is for TSM (Tivoli Storage Manager) so even if 
you find your drive in there it still may mean you need a driver. It is 
often the case when an IBM driver is required that both the driver and 
drive firmware must match.

I'm going to duck out now except to say one more thing. When I've had to 
install TSM on a windows machine & it's gone wrong it has always been the 
driver (or getting windows to use the right driver) at fault.
