2.If the tape cartridge is not write-protected (read-only), the operating system writes the updated copy of the tape log back to the tape.

3.The tape rewinds to the beginning-of-media (BOM) and is unthreaded.

4.The changer places the cartridge back into the magazine.

5.The magazine is ejected.

If there is no cartridge in the tape drive, the magazine is ejected without delay.
