1. Product Limited Warranty

xByte warrants that its products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for one (1) year for any and all part and servers unless a different warranty period is specified on the invoice. The warranty period begins on your invoice date. FOR SOLID STATE DRIVES, THE WARRANTY PERIOD IS THE SHORTER OF : (I) THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD STATED ABOVE OR (II) THE PERIOD ENDING ON THE DATE WHEN THE SSD HAS EXCEEDED ITS TBW (TOTAL BYTES WRITTEN) THRESHOLD. During the warranty period, xByte will, at its option: (i) provide replacement parts necessary to repair the product, (ii) repair the product, (iii) replace the product with a comparable or superior one, or (iv) refund the amount you paid for the product, LESS SHIPPING & HANDLING, upon its return. You must assist xByte in diagnosing issues with your product and follow xByte’s warranty processes. You must obtain warranty service from xByte. xByte will not reimburse you for service performed by others. In the event that the part or server under warranty is not currently available, xByte will make every reasonable effort to obtain a replacement part or server or provide you with a like or superior product at xByte’s discretions. Replacement parts and products will be serviceably used, comparable in function and performance equal to the original part, and warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period. All defective parts or products must be returned within fourteen (14) days after you receive the replacement parts or products. Any customer failing to return the products within fourteen (14) days will be charged for all replacement products. If items arrive damaged due to shipping, you must notify xByte within 5 business days of said damaged. Items must be inspected upon receipt. Items returned with physical damage, not notified within 5 business days of receipt, will not be warranted. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER MISUSE OR MINOR IMPERFECTIONS THAT DO NOT MATERIALLY ALTER FUNCTIONALITY. PRODUCTS SOLD BY xByte AS "USED" MAY NOT PERFORM AS WELL AS SIMILAR NEW PRODUCTS. xByte DOES NOT WARRANT AND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY MISUSE, ABUSE, ACCIDENTS, VIRUSES, UNAUTHORIZED SERVICE OR PARTS, OR THE COMBINATION OF xByte PRODUCTS WITH OTHER PRODUCTS.
