The VXA-1 drive does have a manual override eject option: Press and hold the eject 
button for approximately 20-30 seconds. This may be
appropriate in some situations, However, if you have any problems with tapes not 
ejecting, it is recommended that you contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

For more details on emergency tape removal procedures, check this article of the VXA
