B,C,E Correct answer
Explanation

Tapes can be available if they are completely new and unwritten (C), if all images have been manually expired (B), or if images have reached their retention period and expired (E). Option A is incorrect because frozen tapes cannot be overwritten even if expired. Option D creates ambiguity - a tape with mixed expired/unexpired images would not be cleanly available for use.
