Disk Protection
Labels do help you keep track of your disks, but you may also
need to protect your disks. Some floppy disks are protected,
letting you examine information on them without letting you
change anything. These are called write-protected disks. They
usually have a small piece of tape, called a tab, covering a notch
on the right side of the disk. You can copy information onto a
write-protected disk by first removing the write-protect tab; how
ever, you should consider why the disk was protected — before
you change its contents. After you have copied or changed a
write-protected disk it's always a good idea to replace the write-
protect tab.
