One Gigabyte (1GB) means 10

9

 = 1,000,000,000 bytes and One Terabyte (1TB) means 10

12

 = 

1,000,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. A computer operating system, however, reports 
storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 2

30

 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and 

therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if the computer 
includes one or more pre-installed operating systems, pre-installed software applications, or media 
content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.

Some colors may not be available in all drive sizes.

While most systems provide sufficient power over the USB port for the Toshiba Portable External  
Hard Drive, a few manufacturers and some older systems limit this power. If you find that your 
Toshiba Portable External Hard Drive does not spin up, you may require a USB “Y” cable. This 
cable combines the power from two USB ports to provide ample power to your drive. Please 
contact Toshiba SDD Technical Support for information on obtaining a “Y” cable.

Examples of the number of photos, songs, movies, and any other files that can be stored on a hard 
drive are provided for illustrative purposes only. Your results will vary based on file size and format, 
settings, features, operating system, software and other factors.
