Loading a tape
Before loading a tape, check the cartridge for damage.

threading correctly and can damage the tape drive.
Do not load a cartridge if:
•
The case is cracked or broken.
•
The leader block (the blank section at the beginning of the 
tape) or its latch is broken.
•
The file protect selector or sensor is damaged.
•
The label is peeling.
•
The case contains any liquid.
•
The tape was wound completely out of the cartridge, then 
reattached to the cartridge reel.
If a cartridge is damaged, substitute one that contains a backup 
version of the data.
1. Hold the cartridge with the smooth side on top and the leader 
block toward the drive.
