One gigabyte, or GB, equals one billion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. One terabyte, or TB, equals 1,000 gigabytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may

vary depending on operating environment and formatting. Quantitative usage examples for various applications are for illustrative purposes and are based on the following assumptions: each

hour of DVD-quality video is 2.1GB, each digital photo is 1MB, and each MP3 is 4 minutes long. Actual quantities will vary based on various factors, including file size, file format, features and

application software. Specifications subject to change without notice.
