• The version of the Windows, Mac, or UNIX operating system you are using.
• The brand name and model number of your computer (e.g., Dell 466/NP, Micron
P66PCI Powerstation, ALR Evolution V, Apple Macintosh, Performa 575, etc.).
• The type of VGA, Super VGA, or other graphics board you use.
• Brand name and model number of any other peripherals you have installed or
connected to your computer (e.g., CD-ROM, scanner, fax board, network board).

Returns

You must receive an RMA (Returned Materials Authorization) number before any
Plextor drive can be returned for repair or replacement.

Any drive sent to Plextor without an RMA number will not be accepted. Be sure to
write the RMA number on the outside of the shipping box.
NOTE: The RMA number must be clearly visible on the outside of the shipping box.
Drives must be sent postage prepaid. We recommend that you insure your shipment,
