Hitachi has been eaten by Western Digital. It's Samsung's mecanical disk division that has been swallowed by Seagate.
Toshiba got the 3.5" side of Hitachi.But I thought Toshiba obtained a part of the Hitachi per the deal for anti-monopoly in the EU.
That's not correct.IIRC, Toshiba got WDC's Thailand 3.5" assets in exchange for Toshiba's Thailand 2.5" assets, and WDC retained all of HGST.
