Write-Protecting Tapes
If you write-protect a tape cartridge, the tape drive can only read data from the
tape, not write to it. This protects data on the tape cartridge from being erased or
overwritten (e.g., when you are restoring files from tape).
To write-protect a cartridge, slide the write-protect tab on the cartridge to
the right.
