OBTAINING WARRANTY SERVICE

Prior to contacting OWC, please consult your Owner’s Manual or 

www.macsales.com/jupiter

 for troubleshooting advice and 

directions on running hardware diagnostics. 

If the Jupiter storage product is still not functioning properly after making use of these resources, please contact the OWC service 

representatives or, if applicable, an OWC Authorized Service Provider using the information provided in the Owner’s Manual, 

or See 

www.macsales.com/jupiter

 for service representative contact information. An OWC representative or OWC Authorized 

Service Provider will help determine whether your Jupiter storage product requires warranty service and, if it does, will inform 

you how OWC will assist you.  IN DELIVERING ITS WARRANTY SERVICES, OWC MAY RECORD PART OR ALL OF THE CALLS, EMAILS,

with new or re-furbished parts, which may require user-install, (2) arrange for exchange of the product, with same or feature
