CAPACITY CALCULATION

One Gigabyte (1GB) means 109 = 1,000,000,000 bytes Using powers
of 10. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity

using powers of 2 for the denition of 1GB=230 = 1,073,741,824 bytes,

and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity

(including examples of various media les) will vary based on le size,

formatting, settings, software and operating system.

RoHS Compatible. This product is compatible with Euro­pean Union Directive 2002/95/EC, Restriction of the use of

certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic

equipment (RoHS), which restricts use of lead, cadmium, mercury,
hexavalent chromium, PBB, and PBDE.

CALCUL DE LA CAPACITÉ

Un gigaoctet (1 Go) signie 109 = 1 000 000 000 d’octets et un
teraoctect (1 To) signie 1012 = 1 000 000 000 000 d’octets selon

des puissances de 10. Cependant, le système d’exploitation de
l’ordinateur calcule la capacité de stockage selon des puissances
de 2, c’est-à-dire 1 Go = 230 = 1 073 741 824 octets et 1 To = 240 =
1 099 511 627 776 octets, et peut donc indiquer une capacité de
stockage moindre. La capacité de stockage disponible (y compris
les exemples de divers dossiers de médias) variera selon la taille
de dossier, le formatage, les paramètres, le logiciel et le système
d’exploitation ainsi que d’autres facteurs.
