1. One Gigabyte (1 GB) means 10
9
= 1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10.
A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using pow-
ers 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.
2. RoHS Compatible: This product is compatible with European Union Directive
2002/95/EC. Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electri-
cal and electronic equipment (RoHS), which restricts use of lead, cadmium,
mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE.
3. Buffer space available to the user.
4. Energy consumption efficiency is calculated based on power consumption
divided by formatted capacity, as defined by Japanese law.
Subject to Change: While Toshiba has made every effort at the time of publication
to ensure the accuracy of the information provided herein, product specifications,
configurations, prices, system/component/options availability are all subject to
change without notice.
