*   Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Storage Node handles tape libraries and autoloaders by using 
Removable Storage Management (RSM). Since Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and 
Windows MultiPoint Server 2010 do not support RSM, a storage node installed in these 
operating systems does not support tape libraries and autoloaders.
