Hitachi GST to Aqcuire Substrate Manufacturing Facility
 

Tokyo, May 28, 2009 (IRG) - Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (Hitachi GST) announced that it has agreed to acquire a substrate manufacturing facility located in Sarawak, Malaysia from Western Digital (WD). The facility currently produces aluminum substrates used in hard disk drives.

WD originally acquired the Sarawak facility through its purchase of Komag in 2007. The Sarawak facility is located in close proximity to existing Hitachi GST suppliers and drive assembly operations, which will enable us to realize increased operational efficiencies and other long-term benefits.
