Seagate Travan 8GB/20GB Reference Manual 25
Setting the write-protect
switch
Travan cartridges feature a write-protect or “lock”
switch near the upper left corner of the cartridge.
When the write-protect switch is in the “unlocked”
position, the cartridge is ready for normal writing and
reading. When the write-protect switch is in the
“locked” position, the drive can read data from the
cartridge, but cannot write to the cartridge. Cartridges
are shipped from the factory with the write-protect
switch set to the “unlocked” position.
