4.2 Write-Protect Switch
Each LTO data cartridge has a write-protect switch that can be used to prevent accidental erasure of data. Before inserting the data cartridge into the tape drive, position the write-protect switch on the front of the cartridge. The position of the write-protect switch is shown below.
･Move the write-protect switch to the left to disable write protection.
This means that data can be written to the data cartridge unless software write-protect is in effect..
･Move the write-protect switch to the right to enable write protection. This means that data can not be written to the data cartridge.
