Write-Protecting and Recording

The write-protect tab on the cartridge prevents accidental data erasure.
To use the write protect tab on the data cartridge:

1.

Move the tab on the edge of the data cartridge to the SAFE position.
With the tab in this position, the tape cannot be written to and data
on the tape is safe from accidental erasure.

2.

Move the tab to the REC position to record data. With the tab in this
position, the tape can be written to and data already on tape can be
written over and erased.
