Tape Cartridge
The tape unit uses the IBM data cartridge to store data
and programs. The data cartridge contains 300 feet
(91.4 meters) of 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) tape and stores
200K bytes of formatted data. The cartridge is keyed to
prevent incorrect insertion in the tape unit. Data files
are protected when the file protect window" is turned
to the SAFE position. If an attempt is made to write to
the tape, an error code is displayed, and the write
operation will terminate.
