                           MAXTOR CORPORATION
               Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                               (Unaudited)

1.   Consolidated financial statements

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Maxtor
Corporation (Maxtor or the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
In connection with the sale of the assets of Storage Dimensions, Inc.
(SDI), formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Maxtor
acquired a 32.8% interest in the company formed for the purpose of
purchasing the net assets of SDI.  Maxtor accounts for its investment
under the equity method.  All significant intercompany transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.  All adjustments of a normal recurring
nature which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods have been made.  It is
recommended that the interim financial statements be read in conjunction
with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
for the fiscal year ended March 25, 1995.  Interim results are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for later
quarters or the full fiscal year.

The Company maintains a 52/53-week fiscal year cycle.  Fiscal year 1996
will be comprised of 53 weeks.  The first quarter of fiscal year 1996
was comprised of 14 weeks; remaining quarters will be comprised of 13
weeks.  Fiscal year 1995 was comprised of 52 weeks; all quarters were
comprised of 13 weeks.


2.   Short-term borrowings

In September 1993, the Company obtained a secured, asset-based revolving
line of credit.  The original committed line of credit provided for
borrowings up to $76.0 million over a two-year term and is secured by
receivables, certain inventories and other assets.  This revolving line
of credit includes sublines for letters of credit and bears interest at
various rates.  Borrowings under this line of credit are limited to a
percentage of eligible receivables.  The agreement includes covenants to
maintain certain financial ratios and precludes the Company from paying
cash dividends.  On June 17, 1994, the Company received an amendment to
its line of credit for the minimum operating profit which is measured at
the end of each quarter.  With such amendment, the Company was in
compliance with all financial covenants during the quarter ended June
25, 1994.  On October 11, 1994, the Company received an unconditional
waiver of defaults of minimum operating profit, minimum net worth and
leverage ratio covenants defaults that occurred as of the fiscal quarter
ended September 24, 1994.  On October 31, 1994, the Company received
another amendment to its line of credit with respect to each of the
financial covenants that are measured at the end of each fiscal quarter
and fiscal year end.  The amendment extended the commitment on the
revolving line of credit for an additional year, thereby providing for
borrowings over a two-year term, ending September 1996.  The Company
also elected to reduce its line of credit from $76.0 million to $50.0
million.  On August 2, 1995, the Company received an unconditional
waiver of defaults of minimum operating profit and capital expenditures
covenants that occurred as of the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 1995.
This waiver enables the Company to borrow, if necessary, through the
fiscal quarter ending September 30, 1995.  As of July 1, 1995, $30.0
million of borrowings and $1.3 million of letters of credit were
outstanding.  The $30.0 million of borrowings was fully repaid the first
week after fiscal quarter end.  The balance available for additional
borrowings under this line of credit at July 1, 1995 was approximately
$15.5 million using the July 1, 1995 borrowing base.

On July 20, 1995, the Company and Hyundai Electronics Industries Co.,
Ltd. (HEI) entered into a memorandum of understanding under which HEI
will provide a $100 million corporate guarantee, subject to negotiation
and execution of a definitive agreement.  The Company intends to obtain
a $100 million credit facility supported by the HEI guarantee during the
second quarter of fiscal year 1996.


3.   Net loss per share

Net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares
of all classes of common stock outstanding during the quarters ended
July 1, 1995 and June 25, 1994.


4.   Contingencies

As part of the acquisition of the MiniScribe business in June 1990, the
Company was assigned a patent license agreement between MiniScribe and
Rodime plc (Rodime) covering patents related to 3.5-inch disk drives.
The Company believes that the assignment was valid; however, Rodime has
taken the position that the assignment was invalid and would not in any
event cover 3.5-inch drives manufactured and sold by the Company before
the acquisition of MiniScribe's assets.  In February 1993, Maxtor
commenced an action for declaratory relief in the U. S. Bankruptcy Court
in Denver, Colorado seeking a judgment that the assignment was valid.
Rodime filed a denial and counterclaim for patent infringement.  In
April 1994, the relevant claims of the Rodime patent at issue in
Rodime's counterclaims were declared invalid in litigation between
Rodime and another disk drive manufacturer.  The Company's litigation
with Rodime has been stayed pending Rodime's appeal of the finding of
invalidity.

Certain other claims, including other patent infringement claims,
against the Company have arisen in the course of its business.  There is
presently no litigation involving such claims, and the Company believes
the outcome of these claims and the claim concerning Rodime described
above will not have a material adverse effect, if any, on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.



Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General
Since its inception in 1982, Maxtor Corporation (Maxtor or the Company)
has been subject to the highly cyclical nature of the disk drive
industry.  The industry is subject to rapid technological change and
short product life cycles.  The industry is also intensely competitive
and significant price erosion is typical during the life of a product.
At times the industry is subject to excess production capacity, and
component cost and availability pressures.  In addition to being
impacted by these industry factors, the Company has been less successful
than its competitors in managing product transitions and has been unable
to bring certain products to market in a timely and cost effective
manner.  Further, many of the Company's competitors have greater
financial and other resources and broader product lines than the Company
with which to compete in this environment.

As a result of the factors discussed above and others, the Company has
incurred operating losses during each of the last ten consecutive fiscal
quarters, including the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1995 for which the
Company reported net income of approximately $1.1 million as a result of
a non-recurring gain of approximately $10 million from the sale of the
Company's interest in Maxoptix Corporation.  Primarily as a result of
continuing pricing pressures and other competitive factors, component
availability, cost and time-to-market issues with regard to its new
products, and general industry conditions, the Company was not
profitable during the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 and the Company
does not expect to be profitable during the remainder of fiscal year
1996.

As noted above, the disk drive industry is subject to rapid
technological change and short product life cycles as data storage
manufacturers continually strive for smaller form factors, larger
storage capacities, higher performance and lower cost.  Shorter product
life cycles also increase the importance of the Company's ability to
successfully manage product transitions.  The Company has been less
successful than its competitors in managing product transitions, and
successful new products introduced by competitors have tended to
displace older products, including the Company's products.  The failure
to adequately manage product transitions could result in the loss of
market opportunities, decreased sales of existing products, cancellation
of products or product lines, the accumulation of obsolete and excess
inventory and unanticipated charges related to obsolete capital
equipment.  The Company's ability to anticipate market trends and to
successfully develop, manufacture in volume and sell new products in a
timely manner and at favorable gross margins will be important factors
affecting the Company's future results and there can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in such efforts.

The disk drive industry is intensely competitive and significant price
erosion is typical during the life of a product.  As a result of the
rapid technological change and short product life cycles characteristic
of the industry, bringing new products to market on a timely basis has
become increasingly critical to competing in this price competitive
environment.  When a new product is not brought to market on a timely
basis, the selling price of older products generally must be reduced in
order to compete effectively with competitors' new products, which are
being produced at lower costs.  If competitors introduce products which
offer greater capacity, better performance, lower prices or any
combination of these factors, the Company's results of operations would
be adversely affected.  Due to the narrowness of the Company's product
offerings relative to its competition, any delay in bringing a product
to market will have a more significant adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations than a similar delay would have on its
competitors' results of operations.  Although the Company expects that
price erosion for certain products will continue during fiscal year 1996
at a level near or below the erosion experienced in the first quarter of
fiscal year 1996, there can be no assurance that price erosion will not
increase substantially.

As a result of volatile business conditions in the personal computer
(PC) industry, including the trend toward consolidation among PC
manufacturers, sales to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have
become increasingly important to the success of the disk drive industry
participants.  Although the Company intends to continue in its efforts
to increase its share of the OEM market, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful in such efforts.  The Company continues
to be heavily dependent on the distribution channel, which subjects the
Company to certain pricing pressures and other factors unique to that
channel, including historically higher levels of product returns
compared to the levels of returns experienced with OEM customers.

The quality and yield of the Company's products is highly dependent on
the Company's ability to obtain high-quality components and sub-
assemblies, and its internal manufacturing processes.  In the past, the
Company's operating results have been affected by production delays and
quality problems resulting from its inability to obtain certain key
components and by the failure of certain components to meet requisite
quality standards.  However, the Company has implemented a number of
programs to improve the quality of its key components and subassemblies,
and its internal manufacturing processes.  As a result of these efforts,
the Company has made significant strides in improving the quality of its
products.  The Company believes that it must continue to focus on
product quality to improve its competitive position in the disk drive
industry.

The Company's manufacturing process requires large volumes of high-
quality and low-cost components supplied by outside suppliers.  The
Company periodically receives communication from vendors that they may
be unable to supply required volumes of certain key components.  While
the Company has qualified and continues to qualify multiple sources for
many components, it is reliant on, and will continue to be reliant on,
single sources for many semi-custom and custom integrated circuits and
other key components.  The Company does not have long-term supply
contracts with most of its single source vendors, some of which are
companies with limited financial and operational resources.  The Company
intends to continue to pursue qualification of alternative sources for
single source components where practicable; the Company believes,
however, that it will have to continue to utilize leading edge
components which may only be available from a single source.  With the
expansion of production experienced by the disk drive industry during
fiscal year 1995 and continuing into fiscal year 1996, shortages of
certain key components for the disk drive industry have increased, the
Company has experienced shortages, and the Company expects that industry
shortages and increased costs of key components will continue into
future quarters.  The Company will continue to aggressively work with
its vendor base to minimize its component supply exposure.  There can be
no assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in such
efforts or that in the future the Company's vendors will meet the
Company's needs for required volumes of high-quality components in a
timely and cost effective manner.

-------------------------------------------------------------


Revenue
Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 increased by nearly
45% from the same quarter of the prior fiscal year generally as a result
of an increase in unit volumes and a shift in product mix to higher-
capacity product offerings, offset in part by competitive pricing
pressures.  Unit volumes increased by nearly 80% from approximately 1.0
million units for the first quarter of fiscal year 1995 to approximately
1.9 million units for the first quarter of fiscal year 1996.   In terms
of a shift in product mix, approximately 90% of the Company's first
quarter fiscal year 1996 unit volume was comprised of drives with a
capacity of 540 megabytes (MB) or higher, whereas the Company's unit
volume for the first quarter of the prior fiscal year was primarily
comprised of drives with a capacity of 540MB or less.  In terms of
competitive pricing pressures, average unit selling prices, in terms of
megabyte per dollar, dropped substantially between the first quarters of
fiscal years 1995 and 1996, particularly related to 540MB or less
product offerings. Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 1996
also reflects a 14-week quarter as compared to a 13-week quarter for the
same quarter of the prior year.  The first quarter was extended to
realign fiscal year end periods for the 53-week fiscal year 1996; all
other fiscal year 1996 quarters are 13-week quarters.  Revenue for the
first quarter of fiscal year 1995 was negatively impacted by a
significant shortage in required volumes of a key component which
delayed certain product shipments into the second quarter of fiscal year
1995; the prior year first quarter was also negatively impacted as a
result of the Company's decision in the latter half of fiscal year 1994
to discontinue certain unprofitable products.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 1996, the Company did not have
any customer which accounted for 10% or greater of the Company's
revenue.  During the first quarter of fiscal year 1995, the Company had
one customer which accounted for approximately 14% of the Company's
revenue.

Gross margin
Gross margin as a percentage of revenue declined to 9.5% for the first
quarter of fiscal year 1996 from 11.5% for the first quarter of fiscal
year 1995.  Despite the significant increase in unit volume and the
shift to higher capacity products as discussed earlier, gross margin
declined primarily as a result of the substantial drop in average unit
selling prices, in terms of megabytes per dollar.  In addition, as a
result of industry-wide growth in unit volumes, shortages of certain key
components occurred during the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 which
negatively impacted the Company's margin.

As discussed earlier, the Company expects that industry shortages and
increased costs of key components will continue into future quarters.
The Company will continue to aggressively work with its vendor base to
minimize its component supply exposure.  There can be no assurance,
however, that the Company will be successful in such efforts or that in
the future the Company's vendors will meet the Company's needs for
required volumes of high-quality components in a timely and cost
effective manner.

Given the cyclical nature of the disk drive industry and the uncertainty
of the pricing environment in particular, there can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to sustain its current gross margin and the
Company anticipates that gross margin will decline during the second
quarter of fiscal year 1996.  The Company will continue its efforts to
reduce its average unit manufacturing costs and to introduce and produce
in volume new higher-margin products in an effort to improve gross
margin during the remainder of fiscal year 1996.  However, there can be
no assurance that average unit selling prices will not decline at a more
rapid rate or that the Company will be successful in its efforts to
improve gross margin.

Operating expenses

Fiscal quarter ended                   1995        1994      Change
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Research and development              $ 22.8     $ 14.0      $  8.8
  As a percentage of revenue             7.2%       6.4%

  As a percentage of revenue             6.0%       9.6%
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Research and development (R&D) expenses increased in absolute dollars
and as a percentage of revenue primarily as a result of the Company's
continued commitment to make substantial investments in R&D since the
timely introduction and transition to volume production of new products
is essential to its future success.  A portion of the increase is due to
the Company's efforts in designing a new drive platform which the
Company believes will improve both the Company's bill of materials and
value added in the near future.  R&D spending in absolute dollars is
expected to flatten during the remainder of fiscal year 1996 until the
Company is able to improve its margins and achieve profitability.
Although the Company has no technology purchases currently planned, R&D
expenses may fluctuate in the future resulting from the cost of
acquiring rights to new technologies.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased as a
percentage of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 compared
to the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to the
increase in the revenue base.  SG&A spending in absolute dollars
decreased and reflects the Company's ongoing efforts to control costs
and expenditures.  The Company's efforts will continue into future
quarters, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in such efforts.

Interest expense and interest income
-------------------------------------------------------------------
(In millions)                        July 1,   June 25,

Interest income                      $  .6     $ 1.4       $ (0.9)
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Interest expense decreased as a result of a lower rate of interest on
outstanding borrowings during the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 as
compared to the same quarter of the prior fiscal year.  Interest income
decreased as a result of lower cash and short-term investments balances
during the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 compared to the same
quarter of the prior fiscal year.

Provision for income taxes
-------------------------------------------------------------------
(In millions)                     July 1,   June 25,
Fiscal quarter ended               1995       1994       Change
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Provision for income taxes        $  0.7    $  0.6       $  0.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The provision for income taxes consists primarily of foreign taxes.  The
Company's effective tax rate for the first quarters of both fiscal year
1996 and 1995 differs from the combined federal and state rate due to
the repatriation of foreign earnings absorbed by current year losses and
the Company's U.S. operating losses not providing current tax benefits,
offset in part by the tax savings associated with the Company's
Singapore operations and valuation of temporary differences.  Income
from the Singapore operations is not taxable in Singapore as a result of
the Company's pioneer tax status.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

(In millions)                                   1995
------------------------------------------------------------

Cash and cash equivalents                      $ 82.2

Short-term borrowings                            30.0

Net cash used in operating activities             6.1

Net cash used in investing activities            10.8

Net cash provided by financing activities         2.6
------------------------------------------------------------

As of July 1, 1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $82.2
million as compared to $108.5 million as of March 25, 1995, a decrease
of $26.3 million.  The decrease in the Company's cash and cash
equivalents was primarily the result of operating losses as well as
purchases of inventory and property, plant and equipment.

Of the net cash used in operating activities during the first quarter of
fiscal year 1996, net loss less non-cash depreciation and amortization
accounted for approximately $4.7 million.  An increase in inventory
accounted for a net use of cash of approximately $27.2 million.  Despite
the Company's efforts to balance production with demand and control
inventory purchases, inventories increased as a result of unanticipated
changes in market demand as well as planned purchases of certain key
components in anticipation of future industry-wide component shortages.
Partially offsetting the increase in inventory however, accounts
receivable decreased and accounts payable increased.  The decrease in
accounts receivable of $8.4 million primarily reflects a higher
concentration of sales during the last month of the quarter for the
quarter ended March 25, 1995 compared to the quarter ended July 1, 1995.
Accounts payable increased by approximately $20.3 million primarily due
to the timing of purchases and disbursement of payments for inventory
and manufacturing equipment during the quarter.

Net cash used in investing activities during the first quarter of fiscal
year 1996 was primarily attributable to $24.0 million of capital
expenditures offset in part by $12.0 million of short-term investment
maturities, net of purchases.  A significant portion of the capital
expenditure activity was related to the acquisition of manufacturing
equipment.  Depending on business conditions, including the successful
introduction of new products, the Company currently expects to make
capital expenditures of approximately $75 million during fiscal year
1996. The Company expects to fund these capital expenditures through
bank and equipment financing and cash flow from operations.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the first quarter of
fiscal year 1996 primarily reflects proceeds from the issuance of common
stock under the Company's stock purchase plan and stock option plans,
offset in part by cash used to reduce outstanding debt.

In September 1993, the Company obtained a secured, asset-based revolving
line of credit.  The original committed line of credit provided for
borrowings up to $76.0 million over a two-year term and is secured by
receivables, certain inventories and other assets.  This revolving line
of credit includes sublines for letters of credit and bears interest at
various rates.  Borrowings under this line of credit are limited to a
percentage of eligible receivables.  The agreement includes covenants to
maintain certain financial ratios and precludes the Company from paying
cash dividends.  On June 17, 1994, the Company received an amendment to
its line of credit for the minimum operating profit which is measured at
the end of each quarter.  With such amendment, the Company was in
compliance with all financial covenants during the quarter ended June
25, 1994.  On October 11, 1994, the Company received an unconditional
waiver of defaults of minimum operating profit, minimum net worth and
leverage ratio covenants defaults that occurred as of the fiscal quarter
ended September 24, 1994.  On October 31, 1994, the Company received
another amendment to its line of credit with respect to each of the
financial covenants that are measured at the end of each fiscal quarter
and fiscal year end.  The amendment extended the commitment on the
revolving line of credit for an additional year, thereby providing for
borrowings over a two-year term, ending September 1996.  The Company
also elected to reduce its line of credit from $76.0 million to $50.0
million.  On August 2, 1995, the Company received an unconditional
waiver of defaults of minimum operating profit and capital expenditure
covenants that occurred as of the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 1995.
This waiver enables the Company to borrow, if necessary, through the
fiscal quarter ending September 30, 1995.  As of July 1, 1995, $30.0
million of borrowings and $1.3 million of letters of credit were
outstanding.  The $30.0 million of borrowings were fully repaid the
first week after fiscal year end.  The balance available for additional
borrowings under this line of credit at July 1, 1995 was approximately
$15.5 million using the July 1, 1995 borrowing base.

The liquidity of the Company has been adversely affected by significant
losses from operations and liquidity has been significantly reduced
compared to the same period last year.  The Company is implementing
ongoing measures with the goal of improving liquidity.  In addition to
attempting to improve operating margins on product sales through the
introduction of new products and reduction of manufacturing costs, the
Company remains focused on controlling other operating expenses.  As
discussed earlier, the Company believes that it must continue to make
substantial investments in R&D since the timely introduction and
transition to volume production of new products is essential to its
future success, but expects that R&D expenses will flatten in future
quarters until margins improve and the Company is profitable.  The
Company anticipates a very non-linear shipment pattern during the second
quarter of fiscal year 1996, which coupled with continued losses is
expected to result in a further substantial reduction in liquidity.
Given the above as well as the uncertainties of the disk drive industry
and the risks inherent in accomplishing the above measures, the Company
is currently seeking additional sources of financing.  On July 20, 1995,
the Company and Hyundai Electronics Industries Co., Ltd. (HEI) entered
into a memorandum of understanding under which HEI will provide a $100
million corporate guarantee, subject to negotiation and execution of a
definitive agreement.  The Company has initiated discussions with
various parties and intends to obtain a $100 million credit facility
secured by the HEI guarantee during the second quarter of fiscal year
1996.  The Company also continues to pursue other financing
alternatives.

Subject to unforeseen changes in general business conditions, the
Company believes that the combination of the measures described above
and other available actions, together with its balances of cash and cash
equivalents, expected cash flow from operations, equipment financing and
line of credit borrowing capabilities will be sufficient to fund the
Company's working capital and capital expenditure requirements through
fiscal year 1996.


DIVIDEND POLICY

The Company has never paid cash dividends on its capital stock.  It is
the present policy of the Board of Directors to retain earnings for use
in the business.  The Company does not anticipate paying cash dividends
in the near future.  Under the terms of the Company's line of credit and
term loan facilities, the Company may not declare or pay any dividends
without the prior consent of its lenders.




                         PART II. OTHER  INFORMATION

Item 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


As part of the acquisition of the MiniScribe business in June 1990, the
Company was assigned a patent license agreement between MiniScribe and
Rodime plc (Rodime) covering patents related to 3.5-inch disk drives.
The Company believes that the assignment was valid; however, Rodime has
taken the position that the assignment was invalid and would not in any
event cover 3.5-inch drives manufactured and sold by the Company before
the acquisition of MiniScribe's assets.  In February 1993, Maxtor
commenced an action for declaratory relief in U. S. Bankruptcy Court in
Denver, Colorado seeking a judgment that the assignment was valid.
Rodime filed a denial and counterclaim for patent infringement.  In
April 1994, the relevant claims of the Rodime patent at issue in
Rodime's counterclaims were declared invalid in litigation between
Rodime and another disk drive manufacturer.  The Company's litigation
with Rodime has been stayed pending Rodime's appeal of the finding of
invalidity.

Certain other claims, including other patent infringement claims,
against the Company have arisen in the course of its business.  There is
presently no litigation involving such claims, and the Company believes
the outcome of these claims and the claim concerning Rodime described
above will not have a material adverse effect, if any, on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

             GUARANTEE BY HYUNDAI ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. OF
                CREDIT FACILITY FOR MAXTOR CORPORATION


This Memorandum of Understanding dated July 17, 1995 will confirm the
intent of Hyundai Electronics Industries Co., Ltd., a Korean corporation
("Hyundai"), to guarantee a credit facility for Maxtor Corporation
("Corporate Guarantee"), and certain related matters.

Hyundai will provide to Maxtor a $100 Million Corporate Guarantee,
commencing September 1, 1995.  The Corporate Guarantee will be provided
in two phases:  the first phase will be for $50 Million to be completed
by September 1, 1995; and the second phase will be for a second $50
Million to be established by December 1, 1995.

This Memorandum of Understanding is conditioned upon the parties
entering into a definitive agreement for Corporate Guarantee, which will
address, among other items, the recourse to be provided to Hyundai to
secure its guarantee. Additionally, the guarantee will also be provided
subject to requisite approvals, which may include the approvals of
Maxtor's stockholders and Board of Directors, as well as the approval of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and various other U.S. and Korean
governmental agencies.

This Memorandum of Understanding is a good faith commitment of the
parties' intent to proceed as set forth herein. However, neither party
will incur any obligation hereunder until a written definitive agreement
is executed by the parties, which agreement will entirely supersede this
Memorandum of Understanding. The parties commit to negotiate in good
faith and put into place such definitive agreement within 30 days from
the effective date of this Memorandum of Understanding.

In witness whereof, the parties have caused their duly authorized
representatives to sign this Memorandum of Understanding as of the date
first above written.

Ladies and Gentlemen:


We refer to the Financing Agreement by and among The CIT Group/Business
Credit, Inc., as Agent and Lender, Finova Capital Corporation, formerly
TriCon Capital Corporation, as Lender, and Maxtor Corporation, as
Borrower, dated September 16, 1993, as amended from time to time (the
"Agreement").  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.

You have advised us that as of July 1, 1995, Maxtor Corporation was not
in compliance with a) the Capital Expenditure covenant for the two
fiscal quarters ended July 1, 1995 as provided in Section 6.11 of the
Agreement, and b) the Operating Profit covenant for the one quarter
ended July 1, 1995 as provided in Section 6.16 of the Agreement.

We hereby confirm to you that (i) we hereby waive these violations of
the Agreement for the period(s) ending on the specified date, and (ii)
such violations shall not constitute Defaults or Events of Default under
the Agreement.

Additionally, and pursuant to mutual understanding, the Agreement shall
be, and hereby is amended, effective July 1, 1995, by deleting Section
3, Paragraph 1 thereof in its entirety and substituting the following in
lieu thereof:

     "1.  The Lenders agree, subject to the terms and conditions of this
     Financing Agreement from time to time, and within x) the
     Availability and y) the Line of Credit, but subject to the Lenders'
     right to make "overadvances", to make loans and advances to the
     Company on a revolving basis (i.e. subject to the limitations set
     forth herein, the Company may borrow, repay and re-borrow Revolving
     Loans).  Such loans and advances shall be in amounts up to: x) if
     the Company has reported an Operating Profit for the most recently
     ended fiscal quarter of greater than zero: a) eighty-five percent
     (85%) of the outstanding Eligible Domestic Accounts Receivable of
     the Company, and b) forty-five percent (45%) of the outstanding
     Eligible Foreign Accounts Receivable of the Company, or y) if the
     Company has reported an Operating Profit for the most recently
     ended fiscal quarter of zero or less: a) seventy-five percent (75%)
     of the outstanding Eligible Domestic Accounts Receivable of the
     Company, and b) twenty-five percent (25%) of the outstanding
     Eligible Foreign Accounts Receivable of the Company.  Any
     applicable increase or decrease in advance rates as set forth above
     will occur upon Agent's receipt and review of the Company's Form
     10Q for the most recently ended quarter which has been filed with
     the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (or Form 10K if
     after fiscal year-end).  Notwithstanding the above, and in the
     event that within 45 days after the Company's most recently ended
     fiscal quarter, x) the Company has not filed their Form 10Q or Form
     10K with the SEC, or y) the Agent has not received a copy of such
     Form 10Q or Form 10K, and until the Company files such Form 10Q or
     10K with and provides a copy to the Agent for their review, loans
     and advances under the Line of Credit will be in amounts up to: a)
     seventy-five percent (75%) of the outstanding Eligible Domestic
     Accounts Receivable of the Company, and b) twenty-five percent
     (25%) of the outstanding Eligible Foreign Accounts Receivable of
     the Company.

     All requests for loans and advances must be received by an officer
     of the Agent no later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, of the day on
     which such loans and advances are required.  Should the Agent for
     any reason honor requests for advances in excess of the limitations
     set forth herein, such advances shall be considered "overadvances"
     and shall be made in the Agent's sole discretion, subject to any
     additional terms the Agent or the Lenders deems necessary.  On the
     second Anniversary Date and each Anniversary Date thereafter and on
     thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Agent and the Lenders,
     the Company may reduce the Line of Credit, provided, however, that
     x) each reduction in the Line of Credit shall constitute a
     permanent reduction in the Line of Credit, y) the Company shall
     immediately repay to the Agent the amount by which the Obligations
     exceed the maximum amount thereof computed pursuant to the
     definition of Availability, and z) each reduction must be for at
     least $1,000,000.00 or whole multiples thereof."

In consideration of our execution and delivery of this waiver and
amendment letter, and to compensate us for processing you request for
such waivers, you have agreed to pay the Agent, for the ratable benefit
of the Lenders, an Accommodation Fee of $150,000.00, which will be due
and payable upon the date hereof.  Payment shall be by means of a charge
to your loan account with us.

Except as otherwise herein specifically provided, no other charge,
amendment, or modification in or to any of the other terms or provisions
of the Agreement is hereby intended or implied.  This letter shall not
constitute a waiver of any other existing Defaults or Events of Default
under the Agreement )whether of not we have knowledge thereof) and shall
not constitute a waiver of any future Defaults or Events of Default
whatsoever.  If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding,
please so indicate by signing and returning to us the enclosed copy of
this letter.



                            Very truly yours,
