ADMINISTRATOR AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE

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

), 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.
