Tape Drive Identifier For API Calls

$

0
I'm still trying to build up the courage to start accessing my data tape drives from programs.

I'm curious about this line
Code:

tapehandle = CreateFile("\\.\Tape0", GENERIC_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ Or FILE_SHARE_WRITE, secatt, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, 0&)
Specifically this part: \\.\Tape0

Does anyone know where that information comes from?
