About the Hard Disk

Your hard drive comes pre-formatted for immediate use with Apple Macintosh computers running
Mac OS. It is formatted as HFS+. If you plan to use your hard drive only with computers running
Mac OS, you can leave it formatted as it comes from the factory.
If you plan to use your hard drive with computers running Windows, or with both Mac OS and
Windows computers, you should reformat so it can be recognized by Windows before saving
data to it. Consult your Windows documentation for how to format to NTFS, or if you prefer to
format to FAT32 please go to www.verbatim-europe.com
Note : 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes/1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes/1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. Some capacity
used for pre-loaded software, formatting and other functions, and thus is not available for data storage. As
a result, and due to differing calculation methods, your operating systems may report as fewer megabytes/
gigabytes/terabytes.
