One Terabyte (1TB) = 1,000 Gigabytes (GB). 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

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.

Compatibility with legacy, 512 bytes per sector applications is maintained through AF emulation 

techniques, called 512e.

Concentrations of chlorine and bromine are below 900 ppm for each substance, surpassing the 

IEC61249-2-21:2003 criteria set for printed circuit boards by the International Electrotechnical 
Commission (IEC), in applying the criteria to all components in the HDD. IEC is the leading 

global organization that defines internationally-recognized standards for electrical, electronic and 
associated technologies.
