IBM LTO Ultrium 8 WORM Tape Cartridge (01PL042)

Description

This product is Write Once Read Many (WORM).  Once written to it cannot be written over.  WORM allows non-rewriteable and non-erasable data to be written, and provides extra data security by prohibiting accidental data erasure.  A WORM tape cartridge is basically the same as any other cartridge other then the smart chip in the cartridge is programmed to identify itself as a WORM cartridge and therefore once written to the first time the cartridge is automatically write protected.
