4.       During the nine-month period ended March 30, 1996, the Company
         repurchased 6,819,800 shares of its common stock in the open market at
         a cost of $113.7 million.  During the same period, 646,202 and 318,015
         shares were distributed in connection with the Employee Stock Purchase
         Plan ("ESPP") and common stock option exercises, respectively.

5.       In October 1995, the Company sold its multimedia business to Philips
         Semiconductors, Inc. ("Philips") for $51.9 million, resulting in a
         one-time, pre-tax gain of $17.3 million.  Separately, in March 1996,
         the Company sold its high speed fiber-optic communication links
         ("Fibre Channel") business to Vixel Corporation ("Vixel").  The sale
         to Vixel did not have a material impact on the Company's results of
         operations.  Through these transactions, Philips and Vixel acquired
         specific assets and intellectual properties and assumed certain
         liabilities directly related to the multimedia and Fibre Channel
         businesses.

         In April 1996, the Company completed the sale of its input/output
         products business to Adaptec, Inc. ("Adaptec") for $33.4 million.  In
         connection with the sale, Adaptec acquired specific assets and
         intellectual properties and assumed certain liabilities directly
         related to the input/output products business.  As a result of the
         sale, the Company is restructuring its business in order to improve
         the Company's focus on its primary objectives and strengths.  The net
         result of the sale to Adaptec and the related restructuring charges is
         not expected to be material to the Company's results of operations for
         the quarter ended June 29, 1996.

6.       In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly
         state the results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods
         ended March 30, 1996 and April 1, 1995 have been made.  All such
         adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  Certain information and
         footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements
         prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
         have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations
         of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  These consolidated
         financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
         consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in
         the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 1,
         1995.

7.       Certain prior quarter amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
         current quarter presentation.

ITEM 2.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated sales were $728.4 million in the third quarter of 1996, compared
with $758.0 million in the immediately preceding quarter and $529.3 million in
the third quarter of 1995. Consolidated sales were $2.0 billion in the first
nine months of 1996, an increase of $498.7 million or 32% from the same period
of the prior year.  The growth in revenues stemmed from 51% and 46% increases
in hard drive unit shipments for the three- and nine-month periods ended March
30, 1996, respectively, over the corresponding periods of the prior year. The
higher volume was partially offset by a decline in the average selling prices
of hard drive products and lower sales of microcomputer products due to the
sale of the multimedia and Fibre Channel businesses during 1996.  The decrease
from the seasonally strong December quarter was due to slightly lower hard
drive unit shipments and declining average selling prices.

The consolidated gross margin percentage was 12.8% in the third quarter of
1996, a decrease of .8 and 3.9 percentage points from the immediately preceding
quarter and the third quarter of 1995, respectively.  The consolidated gross
margin percentage was 13.6% in the first nine months of 1996, down 5.5
percentage points from the same period of 1995.  The decrease in gross profit
margin from the third quarter of 1995 and the nine-month period ended April 1,
1995 was primarily due to three factors.  First, higher-capacity products were
introduced at lower average selling prices as a result of competitive pricing
pressures. Second, the Company shipped a broader mix of hard drives during
fiscal year 1996.  This resulted in higher shipments of lower-capacity products
at lower price points, which generally have smaller gross margins.  Finally,
fewer microcomputer products (which have higher average gross margin
percentages) were sold due to the sale of the multimedia and Fibre Channel
businesses during 1996.  The decrease in gross margin percentage from the
immediately preceding quarter was primarily the result of the decline in
average selling prices in the current quarter.

Research and development expense ("R&D") for the current quarter decreased $2.0
million or 5% as compared to the second quarter of 1996.  The decline was
primarily due to lower expenditures as a result of the sale of the multimedia
and Fibre Channel businesses.  R&D expense for the three- and nine-month
periods ended March 30, 1996 increased $3.2 million or 9% and $23.0 million or
25%, respectively, over the same periods of the prior year.  Higher
expenditures to support the development of higher-capacity products was the
primary factor contributing to the increases.  R&D expense declined as a
percentage of revenues for the three- and nine-month periods ended March 30,
1996 as compared to the corresponding periods of 1995 as lower amounts were
spent for connectivity solutions group ("CSG") products in anticipation of the
sale of these businesses.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense for the current quarter
increased $3.4 million, or 10% over the same period a year ago and decreased
$5.9 million or 14% as compared to the second quarter of 1996.  SG&A expense
for the nine-month period ended March 30, 1996 increased $18.9 million or 20%
over the first nine months of fiscal year 1995.  The increases were primarily
the result of incremental expenses in support of the higher revenue levels and
higher royalty expense, partially offset by lower expenses related to CSG.  The
decrease in expenses related to CSG was the primary factor contributing to the
decline in SG&A expense as a percentage of revenues for the three- and
nine-month periods ended March 30, 1996 compared with the corresponding periods
of the prior year.  The decrease from the immediately preceding quarter was
primarily the result of lower spending in anticipation of the sale of the
input/output products business.

ITEM 2.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Net interest and other income for the three- and nine-month periods ended March
30, 1996 increased $.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively, over the
corresponding periods of fiscal year 1995.  The elimination of the Company's
outstanding debt was responsible for the improvements in net interest and other
income over the prior year.

In April 1996, the Company sold its input/output products business, which
represented the final component of CSG (see note 5).  CSG revenue for the first
nine months of 1996 totaled $69.8 million, or 3% of consolidated revenues.
Beginning with the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company's operations will relate
entirely to hard drive products.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Cash and short-term investments totaled $198.6 million at March 30, 1996 as
compared with $307.7 million at July 1, 1995.  Net cash provided by operating
activities was $12.9 million for the nine-month period ended March 30, 1996.
Cash flow from earnings (net of the gain on sale of the multimedia business),
depreciation and an increase in current liabilities were partially offset by
cash used to fund increases in accounts receivable and inventories.  Other
significant uses of cash during the first nine months of 1996 were $67.0
million of capital expenditures, which  were incurred primarily to support
increased production of hard drives and related components, and the acquisition
of 6.8 million shares of the Company's common stock in the open market for
$113.7 million.  Partially offsetting these uses of cash was approximately
$53.1 million received in connection with the sale of the multimedia  and Fibre
Channel businesses (see Note 5).

The ability of the Company to continue to effectively manage its working
capital and operate profitably is dependent upon a number of factors including
competitive conditions in the marketplace, growth rates in the personal and
enterprise computing industries, availability of third party components at
reasonable prices, continued success in the design and manufacturing ramp,
efficient utilization of manufacturing capacity, and continued timely
collection of accounts receivable.
