* The energy consumption efficiency is the value of the power consumption measured in accordance with the measuring method specified by the Japan energy saving law divided by the Composite Theoretical Performance specified by the energy saving law.

¹ Maximum internal hard disk and memory capacities may require the replacement of any standard hard drives and/or memory and the population of all hard disk bays and memory slots with the largest capacity supported drives available. When referring to variable speed CD-ROMs, CD-Rs, CD-RWs and DVDs, actual playback speed will vary and is often less than the maximum possible.

² GB and TB = 1,000,000,000 and 1,000,000,000,000 bytes, respectively, when referring to storage capacity. Accessible capacity is less.
