*1 Hard disk capacity calculated using base 10 mathematics (1GB =
1,000,000,000 bytes). The system software for this PS3™ system calculates
capacity using binary mathematics (1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes) and
consequently displays lower capacity and free space. The difference in
displayed values does not indicate a difference in the actual number of bytes.
*2
A portion of the hard disk capacity is reserved for use in connection with system
administration, maintenance, and additional options. This may occur upon
installation of system software or other software. As a result, the availability of
hard disk capacity may vary depending on the system, system software version,
or available options, and is not otherwise available for your use.
*3 Functionality of all connected devices is not guaranteed.
*4 "3D", "Deep Color", "x.v.Color" and "HD lossless audio format" are supported.
