1 YEAR WARRANTY

This warranty only covers the hardware components packaged with the 

Product. This warranty does not cover any software contained in, or includ-

ed with, the Product; any such software is provided “AS IS”. Please refer to 

any documentation included with the software for your rights and obliga-

tions with respect to the software.
This warranty extends only to you, the original purchaser. It is not transfer-

able to anyone who subsequently purchases the Product from you. Proof of 

purchase in the form of a bill of sale (which is evidence that the Product is 

within the warranty period) must be presented to obtain warranty service.
To obtain warranty service you must bring the Product, or deliver the 

Product freight prepaid, in either it’s original packaging, or in a package that 

provides the Product with a degree of protection equivalent to that of the 

original packaging, to Fantom Drives. Items shipped with insufficient pack-

aging will void the item’s warranty, and may be rejected for service. Fantom 

Drives is not responsible for any damage to, or loss of, any programs, 

data, or other information stored on any media or any part of any Product 

serviced hereunder
This limited warranty does not cover: (1) any consumables (such as 

batteries) supplied with this product; cosmetic damages; damage or loss 

to any software programs, data or removable storage media; or damage 

due to the Product such as but not limited to excessive heat or humidity, or 

modifications of this Product; (2) improper installation, operation, testing 

or maintenance of this Product; (3) power failure or connection to improper 

voltage supply; or; (4) attempted repair by any party other than Fantom 

Drives. This Warranty does not apply when the malfunction results from the 

use of this Product in conjunction with accessories, products or ancillary or 

peripheral equipment, or where it is determined by Fantom Drives that there 

is no fault with this Product itself. This Limited Warranty is invalid if any of 

the factory applied stickers including serial number have been altered or 

removed from the Product. Repair or replacement as provided under this 

warranty is the exclusive remedy of the consumer. Fantom Drives shall not 

be liable for any incidental or consequential damages for breach of any 

express or implied warranty, breach of contract, negligence, strict liability 

or any other legal theory related to this product. Such damage include, but 

are not limited to, loss of profits, loss of data, loss of use of the product or 

any associated equipment, down time and purchaser’s time. Except to the 

extent prohibited by applicable law, any implied warranty of merchantabil-

ity or fitness for a particular purpose on this product is limited in duration 

of this warranty. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of 

incidental or consequential damages, or allow limitations on how long on 

implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation or exclusions may not apply 

to you. This warranty gives you specific rights; you may have other rights 

which vary from state to state.
