A device that has exceeded this limit might fail to respond to system-generatedcommands or might be incapable of being written to. Lenovo is not responsible for replacement of a devicethat has exceeded its maximum guaranteed number of program/erase cycles, as documented in the OfficialPublished Specifications for the device.Lenovo makes no representations or warranties with respect to non-Lenovo products.
