Product capacity representation
Storage capacity representation
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 difference in capacity calculation.
For example, for an 80GB HDD, Windows represents the capacity
as 74.5GB, 80x1,000x1,000x1,000 byte/(1,024x1,024x1,024)byte =
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.
computer may not start.
Recommended screen resolutions
The recommended screen resolution for Windows is “FHD”
(1,920x1,080) and for Windows 8.1 is “QHD+” (3,200x1,800).
If you set the resolution higher than the recommended value, it
may result in problems with some applications, due to limitations
of the operating system.
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. For example,
for 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, Windows may report the
capacity as 1,022MB or less.

Battery usage time
Batteries are replacement items and over time the battery’s
capacity to hold a charge and its power level is reduced. If a
battery can only hold its charge for half of the time that it could
when new, it is recommended to purchase a new, replacement
battery.
When not using the battery for extended periods, charge the
battery to 30-40% of full charge before storing it. This extends
battery life.
