Write-protect Switch

You can set the write-protect switch so the cartridge is write-enabled. Slide the switch to reveal the “open lock” symbol to write-enable the tapes. In this position, the tape drive can write as well as read data. This setting is recommended when inserting cartridges into the tape library.

You can set the write-protect switch so that the cartridge is read-only (nothing can be written on the tape). Slide the switch to reveal the “closed lock” symbol. In this position, the tape drive can only read data from the tape, but cannot write data to it.
