no warranty of any kind on such products which, if included, are provided “as is.” Excluded is any damage resulting from accident, misuse, abuse,
non-Bualo supplied or approved alterations or unapproved media, or external environmental causes. Bualo makes no warranty that the product
will be free of vulnerability from intrusion or other outside attack.
Should this product have a defect in materials or workmanship, you must notify Bualo within the warranty period to receive warranty service.

responsible for protecting, recovering, or returning data as part of warranty service, so you should duplicate or back up your data before shipment.
