Write-Protecting Tape Cartridges
The use of the write protect switch ensures data safety for files that have
been previously written to the tape and prevents any additional files from
being written to the tape.
To change the write-protect setting, move the write-protect switch:
• Left to prevent data from being written to the cartridge. The orange
indicator on the cartridge can be seen when the write-protect switch is in
the “ON” position (see “A” in Figure 3-2).
• Right to allow data to be written to the cartridge. The orange indicator on
the cartridge cannot be seen when the write-protect switch is in the
“OFF” position (see “B” in Figure 3-2).
With the write-protect switch in either position, data can be read from the
cartridge.
