Write-Protecting a Cartridge
The cartridge has a write-protect switch to prevent accidental erasure of data.
Before loading the cartridge into the drive, position the write-protect switch on the
front of the cartridge. Figure 3-4 illustrates using the write-protect switch. By
moving the switch to the left
1 , the cartridge is write-protected, and by moving
the switch to the right 2 , the cartridge is write-enabled.
Moving the cartridge write-protect switch to the left while the cartridge is in the
SDLT drive, illuminates the red indicator immediately. If the drive is writing to the
cartridge, write-protect does not begin until the current write command completes.
