Limitations on our lifetime warranty

Warranty only covers mechanical failure. If the product has failed because of misuse or natural disaster, we will not replace. For example, if your computer is struck by lightening and burns up, you can not make us replace the charred memory.
Warranty is not transferable. For example, if you give the memory to your mate, they can not claim the warranty. All warranty claims must follow our return procedure
