If you interchange media between other HP workstation DDS tape
drives, note that data cassettes with compressed data can only be read
by tape drives that have data compression capabilities. This includes
data cassettes that contain both compressed and noncompressed data.

You can only store or change information on a data cassette when the
write-protect tab is in the write position. So, before trying to write to
the data cassette, make sure that the write-protect tab is in the write
position, as shown in Figure 3–2.
