return paperwork. Your original box and packaging materials should be kept for
storing or shipping your WD product. To conclusively establish the period of

cause, recovery of lost data, or data contained in any Product placed in its
possession.

Limited Warranty

WD warrants that the Product, in the course of its normal use, will for the term
defined below, be free from defects in material and workmanship and will conform
to WD's specification therefor. The term of your limited warranty depends on the
country in which your Product was purchased. The term of your limited warranty is
for 3 years in the North, South and Central America region, 3 years in the Europe,
the Middle East and Africa region, and 3 years in the Asia Pacific region, unless
otherwise required by law. The term of your limited warranty period shall
commence on the purchase date appearing on your purchase receipt. WD may at
its discretion make extended warranties available for purchase. WD shall have no
liability for any Product returned if WD determines that the Product was stolen
from WD or that the asserted defect a) is not present, b) cannot reasonably be
rectified because of damage occurring before WD receives the Product, or c) is
attributable to misuse, improper installation, alteration (including removing or
obliterating labels and opening or removing external enclosures, including the
mounting frame, unless the product is on the list of limited user-serviceable
products and the specific alteration is within the scope of the applicable
instructions, as found at http:/ /support.wd.com), accident or mishandling while in
the possession of someone other than WD. Subject to the limitations specified
above, your sole and exclusive warranty shall be, during the period of warranty
specified above and at WD's option, the repair or replacement of the Product with
an equivalent or better Product. The foregoing warranty of WD shall extend to
repaired or replaced Products for the balance of the applicable period of the
original warranty or ninety (90) days from the date of shipment of a repaired or
replaced Product, whichever is longer.
The foregoing limited warranty is WD's sole warranty and is applicable only to
products sold as new. The remedies provided herein are in lieu of a) any and all
other remedies and warranties, whether expressed, implied or statutory, including
but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular
purpose, and b) any and all obligations and liabilities of WD for damages including,
but not limited to accidental, consequential, or special damages, or any financial
loss, lost profits or expenses, or lost data arising out of or in connection with the
purchase, use, or performance of the Product, even if WD has been advised of the
possibility of such damages. In the United States, some states do not allow
exclusion or limitations of incidental or consequential damages, so the limitations
above may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you
may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
