EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS

This Limited Warranty applies only to hardware products manufactured by or for LaCie that can be identified by
the “LaCie” trademark, trade name, or logo affixed to them. The Limited Warranty does not apply to any
non-LaCie hardware products or any software, even if packaged or sold with LaCie hardware. Manufacturers,
suppliers, or publishers, other than LaCie, may provide their own warranties to the end user purchaser, but
LaCie, in so far as permitted by law, provides their products “as is”. Software distributed by LaCie with or
without the LaCie brand name (including, but not limited to system software) is not covered under this Limited
Warranty. Refer to the licensing agreement accompanying the software for details of your rights with respect to
its use.
LaCie does not warrant that the operation of the product will be uninterrupted or error-free. LaCie is not
responsible for damage arising from failure to follow instructions relating to the product's use. This warranty
does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, unless damage has occurred due to a defect in materials or
workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports;
© to damage caused by use with non-LaCie products; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, flood,
fire, earthquake or other external causes; (e) to damage caused by operating the product outside the permitted
or intended uses described by LaCie; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions)
performed by anyone who is not a representative of LaCie or a LaCie Authorized Service Provider; (g) to a
product or part that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of LaCie;
or (h) if any LaCie serial number on the product has been removed or defaced.
No LaCie dealer, agent, or employee is authorized to make any modification, extension, or addition to this
warranty.
Any loss, corruption or destruction of data while using a LaCie drive is the sole responsibility of the user, and
under no circumstances will LaCie be held liable for the recovery or restoration of this data. To help prevent the
loss of your data, LaCie highly recommends that you keep TWO copies of your data; one copy on your external
hard disk, for instance, and a second copy either on your internal hard disk, another external hard disk or some
other form of removable storage media. LaCie offers a complete line of CD and DVD drives. If you would like
more information on backup, please refer to our website.
LACIE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY
BREACH OF WARRANTY, OR UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, DOWNTIME, GOODWILL,
DAMAGE TO OR REPLACEMENT OF EQUIPMENT AND PROPERTY, AND ANY COSTS OF RECOVERING,
REPROGRAMMING, OR REPRODUCING ANY PROGRAM OR DATA STORED IN OR USED WITH LACIE PRODUCTS
EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties or liability for incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights, and you may have other rights, which vary from state to state.
Your opening of your package, your use of the product, or your return of the enclosed Registration Card
acknowledges that you have read and agree to the terms of this Agreement. You further agree that it is the
complete and exclusive state of the agreement between us and supersedes any proposal or prior agreement,
oral or written, and any other communications between us relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.
