About the Product Capacity Representation


Standard
About HDD Capacity Representation

About Memory Capacity Representation

The capacity of the storage device (HDD, SSD) of the manufacturer


is calculated assuming that 1KB=1,000 Bytes.

The representation of the memory capacity in Windows and


MeeGo is smaller than the actual capacity.

However, the operating system (Windows, MeeGo) calculates the


capacity of the storage device assuming that 1KB=1,024 bytes, and
therefore the representation of the HDD capacity in Windows and
MeeGo is smaller than the actual capacity due to the difference
in calculating the capacity.
(E.g. For a 80GB HDD, Windows, MeeGo represents the capacity
as 74.5GB, 80x1,000x1,000x1,000 byte/(1,024x1,024x1,024)byte =
74.505GB)

This is because BIOS or a video adapter uses a portion of memory


or claims it for further use.
(E.g. For 1GB(=1,024MB) memory installed, Windows, MeeGo may
report the capacity as 1,022MB or less)

In addition, the capacity represented by Windows or MeeGo may


be smaller than the actual capacity because some functions or
software programs reside in a hidden area of the HDD.

Cautions on Preventing Data Loss


(Hard Disk Management)
Take care not to damage the data on a hard disk drive.
A hard disk drive is so sensitive to external impact that an
external impact may cause loss of data on the surface of the
disk.
Take extra care, because moving the computer or an impact
on the computer when it is turned on may damage the data of
the hard disk drive.
The company is not liable for any loss of data on the hard disk
drive.

Chapter 1
Getting Started

18

Causes that may damage the data of a hard disk drive and
the hard disk drive itself.
The data may be lost when an external impact is applied to the
disk while disassembling or assembling the computer.
The data may be lost when the computer is turned off or reset
by a power failure while the hard disk drive is operating.
The data may be lost and irrecoverable due to a computer virus
infection.
The data may be lost if the power is turned off while running a
program.
Sudden impact or movement to the computer while the hard
disk drive is operating, may cause files to be corrupted or bad
sectors on the hard disk.
To prevent data loss due to damage to the hard disk drive,
please backup your data frequently.

Extending the Battery Usage Time


Decreasing the LCD Brightness
Press the

keys on the keyboard to decrease the LCD

brightness to extend the battery usage time.

Using the Battery Calibration Function


When charging/discharging the battery repeatedly for a short time
only, the battery usage time may be reduced by the difference
between the actual battery charge and the remaining charge
display.

Battery Usage Time Information


A battery is an expendable supply, so when using it over a long
time, the capacity/battery life is shortened. If the battery life is
reduced to under half of its initial time, we recommend purchasing
a new battery.
When not using the battery for a long time, store the battery after
charging it to 30-40% of its capacity. This extends the battery life
time.

In this case, the actual battery charge and the remaining charge
display will be the same by discharging the battery completely
using the Battery Calibration function, and then recharging it
again.
Disconnect the AC power adapter after turning off the
1 computer.
Restart your computer and press the F2 button when the

Regulatory Compliance Statements


European Telecommunication Information
(for products fitted with EU-approved modems)
Marking by the symbol
indicates compliance of this equipment
to the Radio and Telecom Terminal Equipment Directive 1999/5/
EC. Such marking is indicative that this equipment meets or
exceeds the following technical standards:
CTR 21 - Attachment requirements for pan-European approval for
connection to the analogue Public Switched Telephone Networks
(PSTNs) of TE (excluding TE supporting voice telephony services) in
which network addressing, if provided, is by means of Dual Tone
Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signaling.

A backup is a way to restore computer data when the data or
computer is damaged.

This refers to automatically allocating IP addresses to the users on


the network by the network administrators.

Chargeable USB

Software that interacts between the hardware and the operating


system. An operating system knows the hardware information
and controls the hardware. In general, a driver is supplied with the
corresponding hardware device.

This program enables supplying power to a specific USB port when


the system is in power saving mode, hibernation mode or off.
Client
This refers to a computer that uses a shared network resource
provided by a server.
DDR SDRAM
(Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory)

Driver

D-sub (D-subminiature)
This is the cable connecting a general CRT monitor and the
computer. Analog video is output through this cable.
DVD (Digital Versatile Disk)

DRAM is a memory type whose cells consist of a capacitor and


transistor manufactured at a low price. SDRAM is a memory type
whose performance has been improved by synchronizing the clock
with the external CPU clock. DDR SDRAM is a memory type whose
performance has been improved by doubling the operating speed
of the SDRAM and is widely used nowadays. This computer uses
DDR SDRAM.

DVD was developed to replace CD (compact disk). Although the


shape and size of the disc are the same as that of a CD, the capacity
of a DVD is at least 4.7GB while the capacity of a CD is 600MB. DVD
video is digital unlike VHS (analog) video and supports MPEG2
compression and digital audio. To play a DVD, a DVD drive is
required.

HDMI

LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)

This is a digital video / audio interface specification that transmits


video and audio signals over a single cable.

There are Passive Matrix and Active Matrix LCD types. This
computer uses the Active Matrix type LCD called a TFT LCD. Since
an LCD is implemented by transistors instead of a cathode-ray tube
unlike a CRT, its size can be slim. And because it does not blink, it
reduces eye strain.

Hibernation Mode
A power mode that saves all data in memory to the hard disk and
turns the CPU and hard disk off. When canceling Hibernation Mode,
all application programs that were running are restored to their last
state.
Icon
This refers to a small image that represents a file that users can use.
LAN (Local Area Network)
A communications network connecting computers, printers and
other devices within a local area such as within a building. A LAN
enables all connected devices to interact with other devices on the
network. The current LAN uses the Ethernet media access control
method developed in the early 1980s. To connect to an Ethernet, a
network card called a LAN card, Ethernet card or network interface
card is required. To exchange data between computers, a protocol
is required besides the hardware equipment. Windows Vista uses
TCP/IP as the default protocol.

MMC (MultiMedia Card) card


This is an external-type flash memory used for mobile devices such
as mobile phones or digital cameras.
Network
A group of computers and devices, such as printers and scanners,
connected by a communications link. A network can be either
small or large and can be connected permanently through cables
or temporarily through telephone lines or wireless links. The
biggest network is the Internet, a worldwide network.
Network Administrator
A user who plans, configures and manages network operations.
Sometimes, a network administrator is called a system
administrator.
Notification Area

Partition

Server

This refers to the act or practice of dividing the storage space of


a hard disk drive into separate data areas known as partitions. If a
100GB hard disk drive is partitioned into 2 x 50GB partitions, the
hard disk drive can be used as if there are 2 hard disk drives.

In general, a server refers to a computer that provides shared


resources for network users.

PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card International


Association) card
This is an extended card slot specification for mobile computers
such as a notebook computer. Not only a memory, device but also
most peripherals such as hard disk drives, LAN cards, etc. can be
connected to this card slot.
Protocol
A protocol is a set of rules used by computers to communicate with
each other across a network. A protocol is a convention or standard
that controls or enables the connection, communication, and
data transfer between computing endpoints. It defines the data
transmission procedures and the transmission medium for more
efficient network functions.

93

Share
This refers to setting a resource of a computer such as a folder or
printer so that other users can also use it.
Shared Folder
A folder that can be used by other users on the network.
Sleep Mode
A power mode that enables computers to save power consumption
when they are not being used. When a computer is in Sleep Mode,
the data on the computer memory is not saved to the hard disk. If
the power is turned off, the data in memory will be lost.
TCP/IPv4
This is a 4 byte (32 bit) address system separated into each byte
(8 bits) by a dot and each byte is represented as a decimal number.

SD (Secure Digital) card

USB (Universal Serial Bus)

An SD card is a flash (non-volatile) memory card developed for


mobile devices by improving on the MMC card. Although an MMC
card can be used in an SD card slot, an SD card is not recognized
when inserted into an MMC card.

This refers to a serial interface standard developed to replace the


conventional interface standards such as Serial and PS/2. While USB
1.1 supports 12Mbps (12 million bits per second), USB 2.0 supports
a data rate that is 40 times (480Mpbs) faster than that of USB 1.1.
The data rate of USB 2.0 is equivalent to that of IEEE1394. Therefore
USB 2.0 is used for A/V devices supported by IEEE 1394 and a 2nd
HDD and CDRW that require a high data rate.

SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) card


This is the extension of the SD card that supports over 2GB bytes.
