Manufacturers use a decimal (1000) base while Windows uses a binary (1024) base, and hidden partitions such as OneKey Rescue reserve space, so the displayed capacity is lower.
Refer to Chapter 6, "Replacing the battery", which provides step‑by‑step instructions for removing and installing the battery.
The G560 includes HDMI, USB 2.0 ports, an eSATA/USB combo port, VGA, an ExpressCard slot, and audio jacks for headphones and microphone.
