Computer tapes are similar to audio tapes in that the more you use them, rewinding and fast forwarding, the more the tape becomes uneven and loose on the spools. When a tape becomes unevenly wound, it is prone to errors, may jam, or worse yet, break. Use the Retension feature to make sure a tape is evenly wound and properly tensioned, especially if you are having trouble writing to it or reading from it.
Note: This option applies only to quarter-inch cartridge tapes.
