*1TB (Terabyte) = 1000GB. 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon operating environment (typically 5–10% less).
** Burst transfer rates vary from one computer to another and might vary slightly from one drive to another. Average speed is usually lower, depending on host configuration.
***Calculations are based on 1080i 60 (8-bit) for uncompressed HD video, NTSC DV 25 standard-definition 720x486, 29.97 fps for digital video; and an estimation of Digital
SLR resolution of 10 megapixels for RAW photos of 12MB. These calculations are only estimations and might vary.
