Hi,

Don't bother with a zip driver.  Even if NetWorker does
find the drive, it will probably not be able to eject
the disks, etc., like a tape.

Instead, create a directory and add a 'File Type' device
to NetWorker.  You can then label and mount the directory
and perform test backups to your disk.

HTH,
