•
Make sure the cartridge is not write-protected.
•
Make sure the cartridge is a Travan 40 cartridge, not a Travan 5 or older Travan

Tape does not stream
Host data handshake may be too slow. Check BIOS setting for ATAPI interface
mode; the interface chipset may not be capable of high speed PIO mode. Some
backup application software is capable of higher transfer rates than others. Other
Host activity could restrict backup operation transfer rate.
If a power interruption occurs during a backup or restore operation, start over when
the power is restored.
