About the Product Capacity Representation Standard
About the capacity representation of the storage
The capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the manufacturer is calculated assuming that 1KB=1,000 Bytes.
However, the operating system (Windows) calculates the storage device capacity assuming that 1KB=1,024 Bytes, and therefore the capacity representation of the HDD in Windows is smaller than the actual capacity due to the dierence in capacity calculation. (E.g. For a 80GB HDD, Windows represents the capacity as 74.5GB, 80x1,00 0x1,000x1,0 00 by te/(1,024x1,024x1,024)by te = 74.505GB)
In addition, the capacity representation in Windows may be even smaller because some programs such as Recovery may reside in a hidden area of the HDD.
About Memory Capacity Representation
The memory capacity reported in Windows is less than the actual capacity of memory.
This is because BIOS or a video adapter uses a portion of memory or claims it for further use. (E.g. For 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, Windows may report the capacity as 1,022MB or less)

Cautions on Preventing Data Loss (Hard Disk Management)
Take care not to damage the data on a hard disk drive.
A hard disk drive is so sensitive to external impact that an
external impact may cause loss of data on the surface of the disk.
Take extra care, because moving the computer or an impact
on the computer when it is turned on may damage the data of the hard disk drive.
The company is not liable for any loss of data on the hard disk
drive.
Causes that may damage the data of a hard disk drive and the hard disk drive itself.
The data may be lost when an external impact is applied to the
disk while disassembling or assembling the computer.
The data may be lost when the computer is turned o or reset
by a power failure while the hard disk drive is operating.
The data may be lost and irrecoverable due to a computer virus
infection.
The data may be lost if the power is turned o while running a
program.
Sudden impact or movement to the computer while the hard
disk drive is operating, may cause les to be corrupted or bad sectors on the hard disk.
To prevent data loss due to damage to the hard disk drive, please backup your data frequently.

Proper Posture During Computer Use

Maintaining a proper posture during computer use is very important to prevent physical harm.
The following instructions are about maintaining a proper posture during computer use developed through human engineering. Please read and follow them carefully when using the computer.
Otherwise, the probability of (RSI: Repetitive Strain Injury) from repeated operations may increase and serious physical harm may be caused.
The instructions in this manual have been prepared so that they can be applied within the coverage of general users.
If the user is not included in the coverage, the recommendation is to be applied according to the user’s needs.
Proper Posture
Do not use the computer while you are lying down, but only while you are sitting down.
Do not use the computer on your lap. If the computer temperature increases, there is a danger of burning yourself.
Work while keeping your waist straight. Use a chair with a comfortable back. Keep the center of your leg weight not on the chair but on
your feet when you are sitting on a chair. To use the computer while talking over the telephone, use a
headset. Using the computer with the phone on your shoulder is bad for posture.
Keep frequently used items within a comfortable work range (where you can reach them with your hands).
Adjust the heights of desks and chairs appropriate to your height.
The heights are to be adjusted so that your arm forms a right angle when you place your hand over the keyboard while sitting down on a chair.
Adjust the height of chair so that your heel is comfortably placed on the oor.
