            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (Unaudited)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     On February 2, 1996 the Company merged with Conner Peripherals, 
     Inc. ("Conner") in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of 
     interests and, as a result, the Company's previously issued 
     financial statements for the periods presented in this Form 10-Q 
     have been restated to include the assets, liabilities and operating 
     results of Conner in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
     principles and the instructions in Regulation S-X.
     
     The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared 
     by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and 
     regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain 
     information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial 
     statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted 
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to 
     such rules and regulations.  The Company believes the disclosures 
     included in the unaudited consolidated condensed financial 
     statements, when read in conjunction with the consolidated 
     financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 1995 included in 
     the Company's 1995 10-K and its Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus 
     dated January 4, 1996 are adequate to make the information 
     presented not misleading.
     
     The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect, in the 
     opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to summarize 
     fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations 
     and cash flows for such periods.  Such adjustments are of a normal 
     recurring nature, except for the restructuring costs and other 
     merger-related costs and the write-offs of in-process research and 
     development recorded in the three and nine months ended March 29, 
     1996.
     
     The results of operations for the nine months ended March 29, 1996 
     are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected 
     for the entire year ending June 28, 1996.
     
     The Company operates and reports financial results on a fiscal year 
     of 52 or 53 weeks ending on the Friday closest to June 30. 
     Accordingly, fiscal 1995 ended on June 30, 1995 and fiscal 1996 
     will end on June 28, 1996.

2.   NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

     For the periods in which the Company had net income, primary net 
     income per share was based on the weighted average number of shares 
     of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the 
     period.  For the same periods fully diluted net income per share 
     further assumed the conversion of the Company's convertible 
     subordinated debentures for the period of time that they were 
     outstanding.  For the period in which the Company had a net loss, 
     the net loss per share was computed using only the weighted average 
     number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

</TABLE>

4.   INCOME TAXES

     The effective tax rate used to compute the income tax provision for 
     the nine months ended March 29, 1996 and March 31, 1995 is based on 
     the Company's estimate of its domestic and foreign operating income 
     for each respective year.  The effective tax rate for the nine 
     months ended March 29, 1996 was 42% compared with 37% for the 
     comparable period last year. The increase in the effective tax rate 
     for the current period was attributable to certain restructuring 
     costs, non-recurring merger-related costs and the write-off of 
     in-process research and development that are not deductible for 
     domestic tax purposes.  Excluding restructuring costs, 
     non-recurring merger-related costs and the write-off of in process 
     research and development, the effective tax rate was 30% in the 
     current period.  Excluding the write-off of in-process research and 
     development in the comparable period last year, the effective tax 
     rate was 30%.
     
     The Company's anticipated 30% effective tax rate for fiscal 1996 
     (excluding restructuring costs, non-recurring merger-related costs 
     and the write-off of in-process research and development)  is less 
     than the domestic statutory rate because a portion of the foreign 
     operating income is not subject to foreign income taxes and is 
     considered to be permanently invested in non-US operations.  
     Accordingly, taxes are not provided on such income.
     
     The Company expects its effective tax rate for the quarter ending 
     June 28, 1996 to be in excess of 30% primarily due to write-offs of 
     in-process research and development resulting from a recently 
     completed acquisition of and contemplated acquisitions of

                                       7

     software companies.  The overall effective tax rate for the year will be 
     higher than 30%.

7.   CERTAIN INVESTMENTS

     The Company has classified its entire investment portfolio as 
     available-for-sale.  Available-for-sale securities are stated at 
     fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in 
     shareholders' equity.  The amortized cost of debt securities is 
     adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to 
     maturity.  Such amortization is included in interest income.  
     Realized gains and losses are included in other income (expense).  
     The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification 
     method.

8.   MERGER WITH CONNER

     In October 1995 the Company and Conner Peripherals, Inc. ("Conner") 
     signed a definitive agreement to merge the two companies. On 
     February 2, 1996 the merger was consummated after approval by the 
     stockholders of both companies.  To effect the combination Seagate 
     issued 24,478,022 shares of its common stock in exchange for all 
     the outstanding common stock of Conner and issued options to 
     purchase 2,469,580 shares of Seagate common stock in exchange for 
     all the outstanding options to purchase Conner common stock.  The 
     merger has been accounted for as a pooling of interests and, 
     accordingly, all prior periods presented in the accompanying 
     consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the 
     accounts and operations of Conner.  Conner

                                      9

<PAGE>

     designs, manufactures and sells information storage products 
     including disc drives, tape drives and storage management software.
     
     Because of differing fiscal year ends of the two companies, the 
     combined consolidated condensed statements of income combine 
     Seagate's three and nine month periods ended March 29, 1996 and 
     March 31, 1995 with Conner's three and nine month periods ended 
     March 29, 1996 and September 30, 1995, respectively.  The combined 
     consolidated condensed balance sheets combine Seagate's March 29, 
     1996 and June 30, 1995 periods with Conner's March 29, 1996 and 
     December 30, 1995 periods, respectively. Combined and separate 
     results of the Company and Conner for the periods prior to the 
     acquisition were as follows:

     The two companies maintained a majority of similar accounting 
     practices.  However, as a result of certain differing accounting 
     practices relating to the capitalization of fixed assets and 
     inventory, certain adjustments to net assets, which were not 
     material to any period presented, were made to conform accounting 
     practices of the two companies.
     
     An increase in retained earnings resulted from the change in fiscal 
     year.  Previously, Conner's fiscal year ended on the Saturday 
     closest to December 31.  To change Conner's fiscal year end to 
     conform with Seagate's June 28, 1996 fiscal year end, the operating 
     results of Conner for the six months ended December 31, 1995 are 
     included in the combined statement of operations for both fiscal 
     years 1996 and 1995.  The Conner results of operations for the six 
     months ended December 30, 1995 were as follows:

     As a result of the merger the Company recorded restructuring costs 
     of $241.7 million in the quarter ended March 29, 1996.  The 
     restructuring costs comprised $60.7 million for employee severance 
     benefits, $97.2 million to write off or write down equipment, 
     inventory, intangibles and other assets, $45.1 million for closure 
     of duplicate and excess facilities, $24.0 million for fees of 
     financial advisors, attorneys and accountants and $14.7 million for 
     contract cancellations and other expenses.  During the same quarter 
     $97.3 million was charged against the restructuring reserve leaving 
     a balance of $144.4 million at March 29, 1996.  The $97.3 million 
     comprised $19.4 million for employee severance benefits, $56.1 
     million to write off or write down equipment, inventory, 
     intangibles and other assets, $10.3 million for closure of 
     duplicate and excess facilities, $10.5 million for fees of 
     financial advisors, attorneys and accountants and $1.0 million for 
     contract cancellations and other expenses.  The cash outflows 
     related to the $241.7 million charge are estimated to be 
     approximately $128.4 million of which $97.7 million remains to be 
     expended at March 29, 1996.

9.   ACQUISITIONS

     In connection with the merger with Conner, on February 16, 1996 the 
     Company acquired the minority interest in Arcada Holdings, Inc. 
     ("Arcada"), formerly a majority-owned subsidiary of Conner.  
     Seagate acquired the minority interest in Arcada by exchanging 
     1,276,670 shares of Seagate common stock and 906,968 options to 
     purchase shares of Seagate common stock for all the outstanding 
     common stock and options to purchase common stock of Arcada.  
     Arcada develops, markets and supports data protection and storage 
     management software products that operate across multiple desktop 
     and client/server environments.  This acquisition was accounted for 
     as a purchase and, accordingly, Arcada's results of operations have 
     been included in the consolidated financial statements from the 
     date of acquisition.  Goodwill and other intangibles arising from 
     the acquisition are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 
     periods ranging from two to seven years.  As a result of the 
     acquisition, the Company incurred a one-time write-off of 
     in-process research and development of $43.9 million.
     
     On March 29, 1996, the Company acquired OnDemand Software, Inc., a 
     network software distribution manufacturer.  This acquisition was 
     accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the results of 
     operations of the acquired business have been included in the 
     consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.  
     The total cost of the acquisition, including acquisition costs, was 
     $13,231,000, net of cash acquired.  Goodwill and other intangibles 
     arising from the acquisition are being amortized on a straight-line 
     basis over periods ranging from four to seven years.  As a result 
     of the acquisition, the Company incurred a one-time write-off of 
     in-process research and development of $8.9 million.
     
10.  CONVERSION OF DEBENTURES
     
     In February 1996 the Company called for a March 18, 1996 redemption 
     of all of its 6-3/4% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2012.  
     Holders were given the option to convert their debentures into 
     shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $42.50 per share 
     through March 18, 1996 or have their debentures redeemed at a total 
     redemption price of $1,039.38 per $1,000 principal amount of 
     debentures consisting of $1,013.50 principal amount plus accrued 
     interest of $25.88.  Any debentures not

                                      11

<PAGE>

     converted by 5:00pm ET on March 18, 1996 were automatically 
     redeemed.  Approximately $265.5 million principal amount of the 
     debentures were converted to approximately 6.2 million shares and 
     approximately $1.1 million principal amount were redeemed.

                        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION:

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within 
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  These statements include the paragraph 
below relating to customs duties, the paragraph below relating to the 
restructuring costs, the paragraph below relating to the effective tax rate, 
the statements below under "Factors Affecting Future Operating Results," the 
statements regarding capital expenditures under "Liquidity and Capital 
Resources" and the statements under "Part II Other Information - Item 1. 
Legal Proceedings," among others.  Actual results could differ materially 
from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the 
risk factors set forth below under "Factors Affecting Future Operating 
Results".

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Effective February 2, 1996 the Company merged with Conner Peripherals, Inc. 
("Conner").  Conner designs, manufactures and sells information storage 
products including disc drives, tape drives and storage management software.  
The merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests and accordingly all 
prior period financial statements have been restated as if the merger took 
place at the beginning of such periods.  Conner had a fiscal year which ended 
on the Saturday closest to December 31.  Accordingly Conner's statements of 
income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 have 
been combined with Seagate's statements of income for the three and nine 
months ended March 30, 1995, respectively.  In order to conform Conner's year 
end to Seagate's fiscal year end, the consolidated condensed statement of 
income for the nine months ended March 29, 1996 includes three months (July, 
August and September 1995) for Conner which are also included in the 
consolidated condensed statement of income for the nine months ended March 
31, 1995.  The comparisons to prior periods discussed below should be read in 
light of this.  See Note 8, Merger with Conner, to the accompanying 
consolidated condensed financial statements.

Net sales for the quarter ended March 29, 1996 were $2,093,326,000 as 
compared with $1,871,761,000 for the comparable year-ago quarter, and 
$2,339,691,000 for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 29, 1995. 
Net sales for the nine months ended March 29, 1996 were $6,573,822,000 as 
compared with $5,187,203,000 for the comparable year-ago period.  The 
increase in net sales from the comparable year-ago quarter and the comparable 
nine month period last year was primarily due to a higher level of unit 
shipments and a shift in mix to the Company's higher priced products 
partially offset by a continuing decline in the average unit sales prices of 
the Company's products as a result of competitive market conditions.  The 
decrease in net sales from the immediately preceding quarter was primarily 
due to a reduced level of unit shipments and a continuing decline in the 
average unit sales prices of the Company's products partially offset by a 
shift in mix to the Company's higher priced products.  The reduced level of 
unit shipments from the immediately preceding quarter was primarily due to a 
delay in the introduction of new products, production delays caused by 
component shortages and a decline in the shipment of tape drives.

During calendar 1995 Singapore progressively lost its status as a beneficiary 
country under the European Union's ("EU") General System of Preferences 
("GSP"). As a result, hard disc drives produced in Singapore and imported 
into the EU have realized no reduction from full Most Favored Nation customs 
duties (generally 1.6% at the present time) since December 31, 1995 whereas 
disc drives imported into the EU from certain other GSP favored countries are 
subject to more favorable customs duties than those imported from Singapore. 
In addition, there is currently under consideration within the Commission of 
the European Union, a proposal to reclassify certain electronic and computer 
components and equipment. Under this proposal, duties would be assessed at a 
rate of 14% whereas under the current code duties would decline to zero 
within two years. The imposition of such customs duties would negatively 
impact revenues or increase costs and adversely impact gross margins.

Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 16.1% and 18.1% for the three 
and nine months ended March 29, 1996, respectively, compared with 17.9% and 
18.7% for the comparable periods last year and 19.4% for the immediately 
preceding quarter.  The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net sales 
from the comparable year-ago periods and the immediately preceding quarter 
was primarily due to a continuing decline in the average unit sales prices of 
the Company's products as a result of competitive market conditions and 
certain one-time charges incurred as a result of the merger with Conner 
partially offset by a shift in mix to the Company's newer, higher capacity 
disc drives and a reduction in material costs per unit.

Product development expenses for the three and nine months ended March 29, 
1996 were $111,504,000 and $314,192,000 respectively, an increase of 
$25,797,000 and $57,928,000 when compared with the comparable periods last 
year and an increase of $6,133,000 when compared with the immediately 
preceding quarter ended December 29, 1995.  These expenses represented 5.3% 
and 4.8% of net sales for the three and nine months ended March 29, 1996 
compared with 4.6% and 4.9%, respectively, for the comparable year-ago 
periods and 4.5% for the immediately preceding quarter.  The increase in 
expenses from the comparable year-ago periods was primarily due to increases 
in salaries and related costs, ongoing product development expenses of the 
Company's network management software businesses acquired late in the prior 
fiscal year and an overall increase in the Company's product development 
efforts.

Marketing and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended 
March 29, 1996 were $129,962,000 and $375,138,000 respectively, an increase 
of $23,917,000 and $43,603,000 respectively, when compared with the 
comparable year-ago periods and an increase of $1,355,000 when compared with 
the immediately preceding quarter ended December 29, 1995.  These expenses 
represented 6.2% and 5.7% of net sales for the three and nine months ended 
March 29, 1996, compared with 5.7% and 6.4% for the comparable year-ago 
periods, and 5.5% for the immediately preceding quarter.  The increase in 
expenses from the comparable year-ago periods was primarily due to increases 
in salaries and related costs, ongoing marketing and administrative expenses 
of the Company's network management software businesses acquired late in the 
prior fiscal year and increases in legal expenses and outside services.

Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles increased by $7,330,000 and 
$14,226,000 for the three and nine months ended March 29, 1996, when compared 
with the comparable year-ago periods and $5,195,000 when compared with the 
immediately preceding quarter ended December 29, 1995.  The increases were 
primarily due to additional goodwill and other intangibles arising from the 
acquisition of the minority interest in Arcada and other investments in and 
acquisitions of businesses during fiscal 1996, and write-offs of certain 
intangible assets in the Company's tape drive and software businesses whose 
value had become impaired.

Write-offs of in-process research and development for the three and nine 
months ended March 29, 1996 were $52,848,000 and $59,265,000 respectively.  
For the quarter ended March 29, 1996, the one time write-offs were incurred 
in connection with the acquisitions of OnDemand Software and the minority 
interest in Arcada Software, Inc.  The write-offs were $8.9 million and $43.9 
million respectively. In addition, the nine months ended March 29, 1996 
included write-offs of in-process research and development of $3.6 million 
and $2.8 million in connection with an additional investment in SanDisk to 
maintain the Company's 25% ownership and the acquisition of Sytron 
Corporation, respectively.

As a result of the merger the Company recorded restructuring costs of $241.7 
million in the quarter ended March 29, 1996.  The restructuring costs 
comprised $60.7 million for employee

                                      14

<PAGE>

severance benefits, $97.2 million to write off or write down equipment, 
inventory, intangibles and other assets, $45.1 million for closure of 
duplicate and excess facilities, $24.0 million for fees of financial 
advisors, attorneys and accountants and $14.7 million for contract 
cancellations and other expenses.  The cash outflows related to the $241.7 
million charge are estimated to be approximately $128.4 million of which 
$97.7 million remains to be expended at March 29, 1996.

Net other income increased by $10,558,000 and $16,869,000 for the three and 
nine months ended March 29, 1996 when compared with the comparable year-ago 
periods and increased by $6,058,000 from the immediately preceding quarter 
ended December 29, 1995.  The increase in net other income from the 
comparable year-ago quarter was primarily due to a reduction in interest 
expense as a result of capitalization of interest on construction of new 
manufacturing facilities and the redemptions or conversion of certain of the 
Company's subordinated debentures, a gain on the sale of the Company's 
investment in Verity and higher interest income from higher interest rates on 
the Company's invested cash.  The increase in net other income from the 
comparable nine month period last year was primarily due to higher interest 
income from higher interest rates on the Company's invested cash and a 
reduction in interest expense as a result of capitalization of interest on 
construction of new manufacturing facilities and the redemptions or 
conversion of certain of the Company's subordinated debentures, partially 
offset by increased losses on foreign currency translation.  The increase in 
net other income from the immediately preceding quarter was primarily due to 
a reduction in interest expense as a result of the redemption or conversion 
of certain of the Company's subordinated debentures and capitalization of 
interest on construction of new manufacturing facilities as well as a gain on 
the sale of the Company's investment in Verity.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 29, 1996 was 
approximately 42% compared with 37% for the comparable period last year.  The 
increase in the effective tax rate for the current period was attributable to 
certain restructuring costs, non-recurring merger-related costs and the 
write-off of in-process research and development that are not deductible for 
domestic tax purposes. Excluding restructuring costs, non-recurring 
merger-related costs and the write-off of in process research and 
development, the effective tax rate was 30% in the current period.  Excluding 
the write-off of in-process research and development in the comparable period 
last year, the effective tax rate was 30%.

The Company's anticipated 30% effective tax rate for fiscal 1996 (excluding 
restructuring costs, non-recurring merger-related costs and the write-off of 
in-process research and development)  is less than the domestic statutory 
rate because a portion of the foreign operating income is not subject to 
foreign income taxes and is considered to be permanently invested in non-US 
operations. Accordingly, taxes are not provided on such income.

The Company expects its effective tax rate for the quarter ending June 28,  
1996 to be in excess of 30% primarily due to write-offs of in-process 
research and development resulting from a recently completed acquisition of 
and contemplated acquisitions of software companies.  The overall effective 
tax rate for the year will be higher than 30% due to higher effective tax 
rates in the previous quarters.

FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS:

The disc drive and tape drive industries in which the Company competes are 
subject to a number of risks, each of which has affected the Company's 
operating results in the past and could impact the Company's future operating 
results.  The demand for disc drive and tape drive products

                                      15

<PAGE>

depends principally on demand for computer systems and storage upgrades to 
computer systems, which has historically been volatile.  Changes in demand 
for computer systems often have an exaggerated effect on the demand for disc 
drive and tape drive products in any given period, and unexpected slowdowns 
in demand for computer systems generally cause sharp declines in demand for 
such products.  The disc drive and tape drive industries have been 
characterized by periodic situations in which the supply of drives exceeds 
demand, resulting in higher than anticipated inventory levels and intense 
price competition.  Even during periods of consistent demand, these 
industries are characterized by intense competition and ongoing price erosion 
over the life of a given drive product. The Company expects that competitors 
will offer new and existing products at prices necessary to gain or retain 
market share and customers.  The Company expects that price erosion in the 
drive industries will continue for the foreseeable future.  This competition 
and continuing price erosion could adversely affect the Company's results of 
operations in any given quarter and such adverse effect often cannot be 
anticipated until late in any given quarter.  In addition, the demand of 
drive customers for new generations of products has led to short product life 
cycles that require the Company to constantly develop and introduce new drive 
products on a cost effective and timely basis.  In addition, the Company's 
future success will require, in part, that the market for computer systems, 
storage upgrades to computer systems and multimedia applications, such as 
digital video and video on demand, and hence the market for disc drives, 
remain strong.  In addition, the Company's operating results have been and 
may in the future be subject to significant quarterly fluctuations as a 
result of a number of other factors, including the timing of orders from and 
shipment of products to major customers, product mix, pricing, delays in 
product development, introduction and production, competing technologies, 
variations in product cost, component availability due to single or limited 
sources of supply, high fixed costs resulting from the Company's vertical 
integration strategy, foreign exchange fluctuations, increased competition 
and general economic and industry fluctuations.  The Company's future 
operating results may also be adversely affected by an adverse judgment or 
settlement in the legal proceedings in which the Company is currently 
involved (see "Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings").

The Company's future operating results will also be impacted by its ability 
to combine successfully the operations of Seagate and Conner.  The transition 
to a combined Company requires substantial attention from the Company's 
management.  The diversion of the attention of management and any 
difficulties encountered in the transition process could have an adverse 
impact on the revenues and operating results of the Company.  The combination 
of the Company and Conner also requires integration of the companies' product 
offerings and the coordination of their research and development and sales 
and marketing efforts.  The difficulties of assimilation may be increased by 
the necessity of coordinating geographically separated organizations, 
integrating personnel with disparate business backgrounds and combining two 
different corporate cultures.  In addition, the process of combining the two 
organizations has caused and could continue to cause the interruption of, or 
loss of momentum in, the activities of the Company's businesses, which could 
have a material adverse effect on the Company.  There can be no assurance 
that the Company will retain its technical and other key personnel nor 
realize any of the technological or other benefits of the Merger.

The Company is in the process of incorporating its software businesses into a 
single entity called Seagate Software, Inc. and intends to offer its 
employees an opportunity for an equity interest in the software business.  
Although the Company's software businesses currently represent less than 2% 
of the Company's total revenues, a shortfall in revenue from the Company's 
software businesses would have a disproportionate and adverse impact on the 
Company's gross margins and net income.  The software business is subject to 
a number of risks including the highly

                                      16

<PAGE>

competitive nature of the business, the Company's ability to successfully 
integrate its various software business acquisitions, possible delays in 
product development and introduction, competitors' technological innovations 
and loss of key personnel.  The Company intends to continue its expansion 
into software and other complementary businesses.  As a result, the Company 
expects that it will continue to incur charges as it acquires businesses, 
including charges for the write-off of in-process research and development.  
The timing of such write-offs has in the past and may in the future lead to 
fluctuations in the Company's operating results on a quarterly and annual 
basis.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

At March 29, 1996, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term 
investments totaled $1,410,980,000, a decrease of $189,446,000 from the June 
30, 1995 balance.  This decrease was primarily a result of the Company's 
additions to property, equipment and leasehold improvements and the 
repurchase by the Company of 1,900,000 shares of its common stock, partially 
offset by proceeds from employee stock option and stock purchase plans and 
cash provided by operating activities.  The Company's cash, cash equivalents 
and short-term investments are being maintained in short-term liquid 
investments until required for other purposes.

As of March 29, 1996, the Company had a domestic credit facility consisting 
of a $20 million line of credit which can be used for letters of credit and 
bankers' guarantees, but not borrowings. Of the $20 million, approximately $7 
million had been utilized for letters of credit at March 29, 1996.  
Additionally, the Company had approximately $28 million of non-domestic lines 
of credit which can be used for borrowings as well as letters of credit, 
bankers' guarantees, and overdraft facilities.  Although there were no 
borrowings under these lines at March 29, 1996, approximately $4 million had 
been utilized for bankers' guarantees.  The Company also had approximately 
$79 million of lines of credit worldwide which can be used for letters of 
credit and bankers' guarantees, but not borrowings.  Of the $79 million, 
approximately $6 million had been utilized at March 29, 1996.

The Company expects investments in property and equipment in the current 
fiscal year to approximate $1.1 billion, of which approximately $706 million 
had been incurred as of March 29, 1996.  The Company plans to finance these 
investments from existing cash balances and cash flows from operations.  The 
$706 million comprised $356 million for manufacturing facilities and 
equipment related to the Company's subassembly and disc drive final assembly 
and test facilities in the United States, Far East and Ireland, $173 million 
for manufacturing facilities and equipment for the thin-film head operations 
in the United States, Malaysia and Northern Ireland, $147 million for 
expansion of the Company's thin-film media operations in California and 
Singapore and $30 million for other purposes.

During the quarter ended March 29, 1996 the Company acquired 1,900,000 shares 
of its common stock for approximately $124 million.  The repurchase of these 
shares was in connection with a stock repurchase program announced in July 
1994 in which up to 7,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock were 
authorized to be acquired in the open market.  As of May 13, 1996 6,357,500 
shares have been repurchased under this program.

                              OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the 
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the 
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  These statements relate to the Company's 
legal proceedings described below. Litigation is inherently uncertain and may 
result in adverse rulings or decisions.  Additionally, the Company may enter 
into settlements or be subject to judgments which may, individually or in the 
aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of 
operations.  Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those 
projected in the forward-looking statements.

SECURITIES LITIGATION

In 1988 a series of lawsuits were filed in Federal Court for the Northern 
District of California against the Company, alleging violations of the 
federal securities laws on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company's 
securities.  On February 8, 1995 the Court granted defendants summary 
judgment completely dismissing all claims against the Company.  On March 31, 
1995 the Court also denied plaintiffs' motion for reconsideration of the 
summary judgment decision.  Plaintiffs have appealed this judgment to the 
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.  All briefing has been completed and the 
parties currently await the Court's scheduling of a hearing date.

In 1991 another series of lawsuits were filed in Federal Court for the 
Northern District of California against the Company, alleging violations of 
the federal securities laws on behalf of a class of purchasers of the 
Company's securities.  Discovery is continuing and the case has recently been 
reassigned to a different U. S. District Court Judge who has vacated the 
February 10, 1997 trial date.  

In 1993 a series of lawsuits were filed in Federal Court for the Northern 
District of California against Conner Peripherals, Inc. which is now a wholly 
owned subsidiary of the Company, now known as Seagate Peripherals, Inc.  
These class action lawsuits allege violations of the federal securities laws 
and seek damages on behalf of a class of purchasers of Conner's securities.  
Discovery is continuing and the Court has not set a trial date.

The Company believes the 1988, 1991 and 1993 series of securities lawsuits 
are without merit and intends to vigorously contest them. The Company 
believes that the outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse 
effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and/or similar state 
agencies have identified the Company as a potentially responsible party with 
respect to environmental conditions at several different sites to which 
hazardous wastes had been shipped or from which they were released.  These 
sites were acquired by the Company from Ceridian Corporation ("Ceridian") 
(formerly Control Data Corporation) in fiscal 1990.  Other parties have also 
been identified at certain of these sites as potentially responsible parties 
and either have shared or likely will share in the costs associated with such 
sites.  Investigative and/or remedial activities are ongoing at the sites.  

                                      18

<PAGE>


The Company's portion of the estimated cost of investigation and remediation 
of known contamination at the sites to be incurred after June 30, 1995 was 
approximately $14,900,000.  Through June 30, 1995 the Company had recovered 
approximately $2,500,000 from Ceridian through its indemnification and cost 
sharing agreements with Ceridian and, in addition, expects to recover 
approximately $9,800,000 from Ceridian over the next 30 years.  After 
deducting the expected recoveries from Ceridian, the expected aggregate 
undiscounted liability was approximately $5,100,000 at June 30, 1995 with 
expected payments by the Company of approximately $600,000 in 1999, $304,000 
in 2000 and the remainder thereafter.

Approximately $14,000,000 of the $14,900,000 total estimated costs described 
above is attributable to one site in Omaha, Nebraska.  In 1994 the Company 
sold the Omaha property; however, the Company has indemnified the buyer with 
respect to all environmental contamination existing on the site at the time 
of sale.  IT Corporation, a nationally known environmental consulting firm, 
has provided consulting services to Ceridian and the Company for the Omaha 
site for several years and has assisted the Company in estimating the 
liability related to the cost of remediation.  This liability is based on a 
plan of investigation and remediation developed by IT Corporation pursuant to 
a Consent Order entered into by the Company and the EPA in 1990.  The extent 
of contamination in the groundwater has been investigated and generally 
defined.  According to the plan, the likely technology for remediation of 
groundwater at the facility will be pumping and treatment, while remediation 
of soils will most likely be accomplished by soil vapor extraction.  A 
substantial portion of the Omaha liability was discounted by applying a risk 
free rate of 6% to the expected payments to be made by the Company over the 
next 30 years.  None of the liabilities for any of the other sites has been 
discounted.  The total liability for all sites recorded by the Company after 
considering the estimated effects of inflation, reimbursements by Ceridian 
and discounting was approximately $3,000,000 at June 30, 1995.

The Company believes that the indemnification and cost sharing agreements 
entered into with Ceridian and the reserves that the Company has established 
with respect to its future environmental costs are such that, based on 
present information available to it, future environmental costs related to 
currently known contamination will not have a material adverse effect on its 
financial condition or results of operations.

PATENT LITIGATION

In November 1992, Rodime, PLC ("Rodime") filed a complaint in Federal Court 
for the Central District of California, alleging infringement of U.S. Patent 
No. B1 4,638,383 and various state law unfair competition claims.   

It is the opinion of the Company's patent counsel that the Company's products 
do not infringe any valid claims of the Rodime patent in suit and thus the 
Company refused Rodime's offer of a license for its patents.  However, many 
other companies, such as IBM, Hewlett-Packard and a number of Japanese 
companies have reportedly made payments to and taken licenses from Rodime.

In 1995 the Court granted the Company's motions for summary judgment holding 
that 1) certain claims of the Rodime patent were invalid, and 2) certain 
accused products did not infringe as a matter of law, except that fact issues 
remain to be decided regarding the ST157, a product no longer in production.  

                                      19

<PAGE>

This case has been reassigned to a different U.S. District Court Judge.  A 
pretrial conference has been scheduled for September 9, 1996 and a trial date 
set for October 1, 1996.  The Court has granted the Company leave to file two 
additional motions for summary judgment, one of which is directed to the two 
remaining state claims in the case and the other of which is directed to the 
intervening rights in the only family of products left in the case.  Rodime 
has also been granted leave to file one motion for summary judgment directed 
to the Company's defense of inequitable conduct.

On October 5, 1994 a patent infringement action was filed against the Company 
by an individual James M. White in the U.S. District Court for the Northern 
District of California for alleged infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 4,673,996 
and 4,870,519.  Both patents relate to air bearing sliders.  Prior to the 
filing of the lawsuit, the Company filed a Petition for Reexamination of U.S. 
Patent No. 4,673,996 with the United States Patent and Trademark Office 
("PTO") and this Petition was granted shortly after the lawsuit was filed. 
Subsequently, the Company filed a Petition for Reexamination of U.S. Patent 
No. 4,870,519.  This second petition has also been granted by the PTO.  The 
District Court stayed the action pending the outcome of the reexaminations.  
The applications for Reexamination of the patents involved in the White case 
are still pending and the suit remains stayed pending completion of the 
Reexaminations.  In both Reexaminations, the Examiner has allowed some claims 
and rejected some claims, and the Company believes, based on a preliminary 
evaluation, that it does not infringe any of the claims that have been 
allowed.

TAX DEFICIENCY

The Company has received a Notice of Deficiency (the "Notice") from the 
Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years 1988 through 1990. The majority of 
the proposed adjustments to income in those fiscal years related to the 
allocation of income between the Company and its foreign subsidiaries.  
Proposed adjustments to income and tax credits in the Notice resulted in 
proposed tax deficiencies of approximately $66,000,000 plus penalties and 
interest of approximately $65,900,000 as of March 29, 1996.  The proposed 
income adjustments would also eliminate tax net operating loss and tax credit 
carryovers that have been used to offset taxable income and tax liabilities 
in other fiscal years. The impact on tax net operating losses and tax credit 
carryovers from the adjustments proposed in the Notice would result in 
additional taxes of approximately $22,000,000 for the three years ended July 
2, 1993 plus interest of approximately $7,300,000 as of March 29, 1996.  The 
Company filed a Petition with the United States Tax Court in June 1994 
contesting the proposed deficiencies and related penalties.   

Conner Peripherals, Inc. ("Conner") received a Notice of Deficiency (the 
"Conner Notice") for its fiscal years 1989 and 1990.  The majority of the 
proposed adjustments to income in the Conner Notice related to the allocation 
of income between Conner and its foreign manufacturing subsidiaries.   
Proposed adjustments to income in the Conner Notice resulted in proposed tax 
deficiencies of approximately $43,000,000 plus interest of approximately 
$28,000,000 as of March 29, 1996.   Conner filed a Petition with the United 
States Tax Court in March 1995 contesting the proposed deficiencies.  On May 
9, 1996, the parties settled this matter by a stipulation of settlement in 
the United States Tax Court which will result in a tax deficiency of 
approximately $5,400,000 and interest of approximately $4,300,000 as of April 
30, 1996.

In addition, the Company's federal income tax returns for the fiscal years 
1991 through 1993 are presently under examination by the Internal Revenue 
Service.  Conner's federal income tax returns for the fiscal years 1991 and 
1992 are also under examination by the Internal Revenue

                                      20

<PAGE>

Service.  The Company believes that the likely outcome of these matters will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or 
results of operations.

BUSINESS LITIGATION

Amstrad PLC ("Amstrad") initiated a lawsuit against the Company in London, 
England on December 11, 1992 concerning the Company's sale of allegedly 
defective disc drives to Amstrad.  The Company replied to the allegations 
made against it by Amstrad by denying all material points of Amstrad's claim 
and asserted many affirmative defenses.  Discovery is completed and trial 
began in London on April 16, 1996 and is expected to continue through July, 
1996.  The Company continues to defend itself vigorously but believes that, 
should Amstrad prevail on its liability claims, a judgment in a material 
amount could be awarded against the Company.  However, the Company also 
believes that it has meritorious defenses to Amstrad's claim, including 
substantial objections to the methodology and calculation of Amstrad's 
alleged damages.

The Company is involved in a number of other judicial and administrative 
proceedings incidental to its business.  Although occasional adverse 
decisions (or settlements) may occur, the Company believes that the final 
disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the 
Company's financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 4.SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
       
The Company held a special meeting of stockholders on February 2, 1996.  The 
following is a brief description of each matter voted upon at the meeting and 
a statement of the number of votes cast for, against or withheld and the 
number of abstentions and broker non-votes with respect to each matter.  Both 
proposals were approved by the stockholders.

(a)    The stockholders approved the issuance of shares of Seagate Common
