CAPACITY CALCULATION
One Gigabyte (1GB) means 10
9
= 1,000,000,000 bytes Using powers
of 10. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity
using powers of 2 for the definition of 1GB=2
0
= 1,07,741,824 bytes,
and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity
(including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size,

up the Data. Be sure to periodically back up Data. Before returning any
Product for service, be sure to back up Data and remove any confidential,
proprietary, or personal information. Always confirm whether the Data
has been successfully backed up, copied or transferred. It is solely your

(as defined below). TSP, ASPs and ADRs are not responsible for any
Damages whatsoever arising in connection with or as a result of: any
Data that is altered, deleted, damaged, lost or in any way modified at any
time, even if it results from a failure otherwise covered under this warranty
or arises during or in connection with the repair or replacement of the
Product; or any restoration or reinstallation of any Data other than software
installed when the Product was manufactured. Hard disk drives that fail
and need replacing under this warranty will be replaced with a blank hard
disk drive of equal capacity and the original hard drive will become the
property of TSP.
