Compounding the problem: the floods have also have affectedcomponent suppliers, including the disk-drive motor company Nidec and suspension arm manufacturer Hutchinson Technology, among others.
The company said that while its own component and disk drive factories in Thailand have not been directly affected by flooding, its ability to manufacture hard disk drives has been impacted due to external component supply constraints, as it has disclosed previously.
The effects of the flood on technology companies affected many across a swath of computer and electronics component makers that depend on supply chains that come out of Bangkok.
The company also said once again that its own factories in Thailand have not been directly affected by the flooding, but it repeated that it will be constrained by component shortages tied to the floods.
