               NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 April 30, 1997
                                  (Unaudited)


NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited and should be
read in conjunction with the Advanced Digital Information Corporation financial
statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended October 31, 1996. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring
adjustments which are necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the
interim periods are reflected herein. Operating results for the six-month period
ended April 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected
for a full year.

NOTE 2. STOCK ISSUANCE

     On March 12, 1997, ADIC completed a public offering of 1,525,000 shares of 
its common stock. Of the total, 1,500,000 were sold by the Company and 25,000
shares were sold by a selling shareholder. Net proceeds of $23.7 million were
received and will be used for working capital and other general corporate
purposes.

NOTE 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE AND PRO FORMA EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Earnings per share - Given the Company's historical capital structure as a
wholly owned subsidiary of Interpoint Corporation, historical earnings per share
amounts are not presented in the consolidated financial statements for the three
months and six months ended April 30, 1996 as they are not considered to be
meaningful. For the three months and six months ended April 30, 1997, primary
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the
common stock equivalents attributable to dilutive stock options during the
period. Fully diluted earnings per share do not differ materially from primary
earnings per share.

     Pro forma earnings per share - In connection with the spin-off of ADIC by
Interpoint, Interpoint shareholders received one share of ADIC common stock for
each share of Interpoint stock held. Additionally, Interpoint stock options held
by ADIC Team Members and Directors were converted in part to cash and in part to
ADIC stock options.

     Pro forma net income per share for the three months and six months ended 
April 30, 1996 is based on net income for the period divided by the number of
shares of Interpoint stock outstanding at June 30, 1996, plus the incremental
shares outstanding, as calculated under the treasury stock method, of the ADIC
stock options outstanding as a result of the spin-off.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion and analysis may contain forward- looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the
Company's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. The Company's actual
results could differ materially from those discussed here. Such risks are
detailed in the Company's Form S-3 Registration Statement filed with the SEC on
February 18, 1997 and are incorporated herein by reference. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements,
which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to
publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements
that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to
reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

     Net Sales. Net sales for the three months ended April 30, 1997 increased
60.2% to $22.1 million from $13.8 million for the same period in fiscal 1996.
Net sales for the six months ended April 30, 1997, were $42.1 million, an
increase of 72.8% versus the six months ended April 30, 1996. The increase in
net sales was primarily due to strong unit sales volume of the Company's DLT-
based products, particularly the VLS DLT and Scalar automated tape libraries,
the DS9000 series standalone tape drives and DLT media. The Company does not
expect that its net sales will consistently grow at rates as high as the 60 to
90 percent year-to-year rates experienced in recent quarters. Sales outside the
United States were $6.9 million or 31.4% of net sales for the three months ended
April 30, 1997 compared to $5.6 million or 40.6% of net sales for the same
period in fiscal 1996. International sales decreased slightly from the first
quarter of fiscal 1997, but the Company expects this decrease to be short-term
in nature. International sales are typically made in the U.S. dollars but may
also be made in foreign currencies.

     Gross Profit. Gross profit was $6.5 million or 29.5% of net sales for the
three months ended April 30, 1997 compared to $3.7 million or 27.1% of net sales
for the same period in fiscal 1996. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was
29.6% and 27.6% for the six months ended April 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Gross profit margin for the current three-month and six-month

periods was higher than the same periods in fiscal 1996 due to a shift in
product mix toward higher-margin Scalar libraries and product cost reduction
efforts, offset in part by a general shift in product mix toward DLT products,
which have a higher per-unit tape drive cost than products incorporating 4mm/DAT
and 8mm drives, and related media. Gross profit margins are dependent on a
number of factors, including customer and product mix, price competition and
tape drive costs. There can be no assurance that the Company can improve upon or
maintain the current gross margin levels, given that tape drives purchased from
third-party suppliers are a significant component of the Company's product
costs.

     Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses
were $3.2 million or 14.7% of net sales for the three months ended April 30,
1997 compared to $2.2 million or 15.8% of net sales for the same period in
fiscal 1996. Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended
April 30, 1997 decreased as a percentage of net sales as increased net sales
reflected the benefits of the Company's significant investments in sales and
marketing resources in prior fiscal periods. Net sales volume in the three-month
period increased 60.2% compared to a corresponding 49.5% increase in selling and
administrative expenses. The dollar increase in selling and administrative
expenses in the three months ended April 30, 1997 over the comparable period in
fiscal 1996 was primarily due to increased sales commissions, additions to sales
and marketing staff, and increased administrative overhead. The Company does not
expect selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales to
decline significantly from the levels experienced in the three months and six
months ended April 30, 1997.

     Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses were
$691,000 or 3.1% of net sales for the three months ended April 30, 1997 compared
to $359,000 or 2.6% of net sales for the same period in fiscal 1996. Actual
dollar spending during the current three-month period was higher than the same
period in fiscal 1996 due to increases in development expenses for the new
Scalar 218 series, other unannounced product development programs, and additions
to research and engineering staff.

     Other Income (Expense). Other income for the three months ended April 30,
1997 was $340,000 compared to an expense of $130,000 for the same period in
fiscal 1996. As a result of the proceeds from issuance of common stock received
in March as well as Interpoint's forgivness of all intercompany loans to ADIC
and contributing cash to ADIC in October 1996, the Company realized $261,000 of
interest income in the three months ended April 30, 1997, rather than $131,000
of interest expense incurred in the same period in fiscal 1996. Net foreign
currency translation gains increased approximately $79,000 between the
comparison periods. Foreign currency gains or losses arise as a result of the
operation of ADIC Europe, the functional currency of which is French francs.
ADIC Europe buys products from ADIC in U.S. dollars and resells a significant
majority of such products in U.S. dollars. However, because francs are used as
the functional accounting currency, all monetary assets and liabilities are
translated into francs on ADIC Europe's financial statements. To the extent that
these monetary assets and liabilities do not fully offset each other and the
franc-to-U.S.-dollar exchange rate changes, transaction gains or losses may
result. For large sales denominated in other currencies, the Company attempts to
implement appropriate hedging strategies.

     Provision for Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the three months ended
April 30, 1997 was $1,011,000 compared to $357,000 for the same period in fiscal
1996. The Company believes that the 34.7% effective tax rate reflected in its
most recent results, which includes taxes paid in various federal, state and
international jurisdictions, is generally indicative of the Company's effective
tax rate in future periods.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's operating activities used $4.5 million in the first six
months of fiscal 1997. Such cash was primarily used to fund a $4.5 million
increase in inventories, a $3.3 million decrease in accounts payable and a $1.7
million increase in accounts receivable, offset in part by net income of $3.6
million.

     At April 30, 1997, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $30.3
million. As of that date, the Company also had a $10.0 million bank line of
credit that expires at the end of fiscal 1998. Any borrowings under this line of
credit would bear interest at the bank's prime rate or adjusted LIBOR rate. No
borrowings have been made under this line of credit.

     The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents and bank
line of credit will be sufficient to fund its working capital and capital
expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months.
