*One Gbyte equals one billion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment

and formatting.

**During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T. specification, which may incr ease acoustic and

power to operational levels.
