Seagate Buys Samsung Hard Drive Division

Just another reason we do not buy any Seagate drives. Not only do they have the highest failure rate in real world usage, they now have aligned with Samsung; Jack of All - Master of None.

Seagate has announced that it has finalized its deal to purchase Samsung’s hard drive division. The move will cost Seagate $1.4 billion in cash and stock options, in addition to the 9.6% of company ownership that is being transferred over to Samsung.
