	1. One Gigabyte (1 GB) means 109 = 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 =	230 = 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.		Visit us at: www.toshibastorage.com
	4. Energy consumption efficiency is calculated based on power consumption
	3. Buffer space available to the user.
	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.
