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 harddisk drives has been impacted due to external component supply constraints, as it has disclosed previously.
Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (Hitachi GST) develops advanced harddisk drives, enterprise-class solid state drives, and innovative external storage solutions and services used to store, preserve and manage the world's most valued data.
Instead of backing up data to an externalhard drive, a chore as popular in our home as taking out the trash, we staked out disk space on each machine and opened it to the other computers on the home front.
