A recording tape cartridge is structured so as to accommodate, within a
case, a reel on which is wound a magnetic tape which is a recording
medium. The recording tape cartridge has a so-called WORM function such
that overwriting of data on a recording region of the magnetic tape where
data is already written, is prohibited. Within the case are provided a
first memory board which stores data managing information for managing
data written on the magnetic tape, and a second memory board which stores
WORM managing information for managing writing of data to the magnetic
tape.
