Due to the flooding in Thailand , difficulties encountered almost all the major hard drive manufacturers, production facilities are located in that country. In addition to the major companies - Western Digital, Seagate, Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (HGST) and Toshiba - problems with power outages and transportation providers have the components for HDD, including Nidec, which deals with the release of spindle motors, Min Aik Technology, TDK and Cal-Comp.
Due to low demand for products, many suppliers of hard disk drives have been forced to reduce stocks of products from 20-25 days to 10-15 days. In fact, it exacerbates the impact of the manufacturing crisis, since the available storage reserves would last only until the end of November or early December.
Despite the fact that the water level had already begun to decline, the restoration from the natural disaster will require at least six weeks. Related Products :
