                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Shareholder and
Board of Directors of
EMASS, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, of
shareholder's equity and of cash flows of EMASS, Inc. for the periods from
January 1, 1995 to May 2, 1995 and May 3, 1995 to December 31, 1995. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.

We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements audited by us present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated results of the Company's
operations and their cash flows for the periods from January 1, 1995 through May
2, 1995 and May 3, 1995 through December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements for
the period from May 3, 1995 (date of acquisition) through December 31, 1995 have
been adjusted to reflect the acquisition of EMASS, Inc. by Raytheon Company, 
Inc.

of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in

1.   ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     EMASS, Inc. ("EMASS" or the "Company"), including its 80% owned subsidiary
     Grau Storage Systems GmbH & Co. KG (Grau), is an international developer,
     producer and distributor of mass storage products, such as robotics-based
     media libraries, data migration, archiving and backup software and system
     integration services, for the MVS and UNIX user environments. The principal
     markets are in North America and Europe.

     EMASS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Raytheon E-Systems, Inc.
     ("E-Systems"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Raytheon Company ("Raytheon").
     Raytheon acquired E-Systems effective May 3, 1995. The purchase of
     E-Systems by Raytheon was accounted for by the purchase method of
     accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16,
     "Business Combinations". The acquisition costs were allocated among the 
     assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values. 
     The fair value of the net tangible assets acquired approximated the 
     allocated purchase price and, accordingly, no goodwill was recorded. 
     The fair value of the assets acquired, net of cash, was $65,686,000 
     and liabilities assumed were $43,683,000.

     The financial statements for the period from January 1, 1995 through 
     May 2, 1995 represent the financial statements of EMASS prior to the 
     acquisition by Raytheon ("Predecessor" financial statements). The 
     financial statements for the period from May 3, 1995 through 
     December 31, 1995 have been adjusted to reflect the acquisition of 
     EMASS, Inc. by Raytheon. These financial statements reflect certain
     sales and expense items which were allocated between the two periods
     on a pro-rata basis. The financial statements of the Company and the
     Predecessor are not comparable in certain respects due to the 
     differences between the cost bases of certain assets and liabilities.

     The consolidated statement of operations reflect certain expense items
     incurred by E-Systems which were allocated to the Company on a basis which
     management believes represents a reasonable allocation of such costs to
     present EMASS as a stand-alone company. These allocations consist primarily
     of corporate expenses such as executive and other compensation.
     Compensation has been allocated based on an estimate of the E-Systems
     personnel time dedicated to the operations and management of EMASS. A
     summary of these allocations is as follows:

</TABLE>

     CONSOLIDATION
     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
     and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances
     and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
     Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments with an original
     maturity of three months or less.

     INVENTORIES
     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in,
     first-out basis, or market.

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
     Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and
     repairs are charged to income as incurred. Additions, improvements and
     major replacements are capitalized. For financial reporting purposes,
     depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated
     useful lives of depreciable assets. Estimated useful lives of property and
     equipment range from three to ten years.

     RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
     Expenditures relating to the development of new products and processes,
     including significant improvements and refinements to existing products,
     are expensed as incurred.

     REVENUE RECOGNITION
     Revenue from large library system sales is recognized upon customer 
     acceptance. Revenue from software and other sales is recognized upon 
     shipment.

     Revenue from sales of services is recognized when services are performed
     and billable, except for extended service agreements. Revenue under
     extended service agreements is deferred and recognized ratably over the
     life of the service agreement.

     INCOME TAXES
     Provision for income taxes has been recorded in accordance with Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes"
     (SFAS 109). Under the liability method of SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and
     liabilities are determined based on differences

     between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are
     measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the
     differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

     The Company filed consolidated tax returns with its parent company during
     the periods presented in these financial statements. However, income taxes
     in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been computed
     assuming the Company filed separate income tax returns worldwide. Deferred
     taxes result primarily from the use of accelerated depreciation for tax
     purposes and the timing of tax deductions for allowances and accrued
     expenses.

     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS
     The financial statements of Grau have been translated into U.S. dollars in
     accordance with FASB Statement No. 52 "Foreign Currency Translation." Under
     the provisions of this Statement, all assets and liabilities in the balance
     sheets of Grau, whose functional currency is the German deutsche mark, are
     translated at year-end exchange rates, and translation gains and losses are
     accumulated in a separate component of shareholder's equity.

     Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are a result of the effect of
     exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in currencies other than
     the functional currency, including U.S. dollars. Gains and losses on those
     functional currency transactions are included in determining net income or
     loss for the period in which exchange rates change.

     FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
     The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents and other current assets
     and liabilities such as accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued
     liabilities as presented in the consolidated financial statements
     approximates fair value based on the short-term nature of these
     instruments.

     CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
     The Company sells product to a wide variety of industries on a worldwide
     basis. In countries or industries where the Company is exposed to material
     credit risk, sufficient collateral, including cash deposits and/or letter
     of credit, is required prior to the completion of a transaction. The
     Company does not believe there is a material credit risk beyond that
     provided in the consolidated financial statements in the ordinary course of
     business.

     WARRANTY
     For standard Company products, parts and labor are covered under warranty
     which range between three months and one year. With respect to drives and 
     tapes used in the Company's products but manufactured by a third party, the
     Company passes on to the customer the warranty on such drives and tapes
     provided by the manufacturer.

     EARNINGS PER SHARE
     Given the Company's historical capital structure as a wholly owned
     subsidiary of E-Systems, historical earnings per share amounts are not
     presented as they are not considered to be meaningful.

     ESTIMATES
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
     during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
     estimates.

6.   DEBT

     Short-term obligations of $19,990,000 and $15,288,000 at December 31, 1996
     and 1997, respectively, comprise local borrowings by Grau. Of the balances
     outstanding, $18,847,000 and $15,008,000, respectively, represent amounts
     borrowed against lines of credit. Amounts borrowed on the line of credit

8.   SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY

     The Company has a Stock Option Plan available to grant stock options to
     employees. The plan provides for a maximum of 2,000,000 options to purchase
     stock. During 1994 and 1995, the Board of Directors granted approximately
     1,800,000 options at $2 per share. As a result of the Raytheon purchase of
     E-Systems in May 1995, substantially all stock options became 100% vested.

     In April 1998, the Company declared a 200,000 for one reverse stock split.
     All share amounts included in these financial statements have been
     retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split. As a result of
     the stock split, all options outstanding resulted in options to purchase
     fractional shares. As a result of the reverse stock split and a
     determination by the Company's Board of Directors of the fair value of
     common stock, all options outstanding were determined to have no value and
     were cancelled.

9.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     Other accrued liabilities at December 31, 1996 and 1997 include $1,063,000
     and $791,000, respectively, due under an employment separation agreement
     with the minority interest stockholder of Grau.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1995, 1996 AND 1997
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


12.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     In connection the purchase of Grau in 1994, the Company entered into an
     agreement with the minority shareholder of Grau whereby the minority
     shareholder has the option to "put" their remaining 20% interest in Grau 
     to the Company for $2,000,000. This option is effective for the period 
     January 1, 2000 to March 31, 2000.

     The Company obtains insurance for workers' compensation, automobile,
     product and general liability, property loss, and medical claims. However,
     EMASS has elected to retain a significant portion of expected losses
     through the use of deductibles. Provisions for losses expected under these
     programs are recorded based upon estimates of the aggregate liability of
     claims incurred. These estimates utilize the Company's prior experience and
     actuarial assumptions that are provided by the Company's insurance carrier.

     EMASS is involved in other disagreements, which are in the ordinary course
     of the Company's business activities that are not expected to have a
     material adverse effect on EMASS's financial position. Management believes
     that if there is any impact on the Company's consolidated financial
     statements as a result of these matters, it will not be material.

13.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     On August 19, 1998 EMASS was acquired by Advanced Digital Information
     Corporation for approximately $24,766,000 in cash. This acquisition will
     be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

                 NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The financial statements presented as of June 30, 1998 and for the six
     months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 have not been audited. In the opinion
     of management, the unaudited interim balance sheet, statements of
     operations, changes in shareholder's equity and of cash flows include all
     normally recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
     position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods
     presented of EMASS, Inc.

     EMASS, Inc. ("EMASS" or the "Company"), including its 80% owned subsidiary
     Grau Storage Systems GmbH & Co. KG (Grau), is an international developer,
     producer and distributor of mass storage products, such as robotics-based
     media libraries, data migration, archiving and backup software and system
     integration services, for the MVS and UNIX user environments. The principal
     markets are in North America and Europe.

     EMASS is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raytheon E-Systems, Inc.
     ("E-Systems"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raytheon Company ("Raytheon").
     Raytheon acquired E-Systems effective May 3, 1995. The purchase of
     E-Systems by Raytheon was accounted for by the purchase method of
     accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16,
     "Business Combinations".

     The consolidated statement of operations reflect certain expense items
     incurred by E-Systems which were allocated to the Company on a basis which
     management believes represents a reasonable allocation of such costs to
     present EMASS as a stand-alone company. These allocations consist primarily
     of corporate expenses such as executive and other compensation.
     Compensation has been allocated based on an estimate of the E-Systems
     personnel time dedicated to the operations and management of EMASS. A
     summary of these allocations is as follows:

              UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA

     On August 19, 1998, Advanced Digital Information Corporation ("ADIC" or the
"Company") acquired EMASS, Inc. ("EMASS"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Raytheon
E-Systems, Inc. ("E-Systems") pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement with
E-Systems dated July 21, 1998. Pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement, the
Company made a cash payment of $24,766,000 to E-Systems and assumed
approximately $2,000,000 in mortgage indebtedness in exchange for one hundred
percent of the outstanding stock of EMASS ( the "Acquisition"). The Acquisition
will be accounted for by the purchase method of accounting in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations", ("APB 16").

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of
July 31, 1998 was prepared as if the Acquisition occurred on such date. The
following unaudited condensed combined statements of income give effect to the
Acquisition as of the beginning of the periods presented. The unaudited pro
forma condensed combined statements of income do not purport to represent what
the Company's results of operations actually would have been if the Acquisition
had occurred as of such date or what such results will be for any future
periods.

     The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are derived
from the historical financial statements of the Company and EMASS and the
assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes. The Company and
EMASS believe that all adjustments necessary to present fairly such unaudited
financial information have been made. The unaudited pro forma financial data
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the
accompanying notes thereto of EMASS appearing elsewhere in this 8-K and the
financial statements of the Company included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended October 31, 1997. The unaudited pro forma condensed
consolidated financial statements do not reflect any cost savings or other
economic efficiencies resulting from the Acquisition nor do they include any
adjustment for corporate allocations and infrastructure imposed by EMASS' parent
company.

            NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL
                                   STATEMENTS

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The pro forma condensed combined balance sheet assumes that the Acquisition
     took place on July 31, 1998 and combines the Company's unaudited July 31,
     1998 condensed consolidated balance sheet and EMASS' unaudited September
     30, 1998 condensed consolidated balance sheet.

     The proforma condensed combined income statements assume the Acquisition
     took place as of the beginning of the periods presented and combine the
     Company's income statements for the year ended October 31, 1997 with EMASS'
     statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the
     Company's unaudited income statements for the nine months ended July
     31, 1998 with EMASS' unaudited statement of operations for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1998.

     All material transactions between ADIC and EMASS during the periods
     presented have been eliminated as a pro forma adjustment. There are no
     material differences between the accounting policies of ADIC and EMASS.

2.   PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

     The pro forma adjustments are based on the Company's estimates of the value
     of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. An independent
     third-party appraisal company has conducted a valuation of the identifiable
     intangible assets acquired.

     Under APB 16, the total acquisition cost will be allocated to EMASS'
     assets and liabilities based on their fair value. The final allocations may
     be different from the valuations reflected herein. The total market or
     appraisal values of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired
     less liabilities assumed exceeds the total purchase price. Accordingly,
     this excess will be allocated proportionately to all noncurrent assets. The
     Company's analysis, based on an independent appraisal, included a valuation
     of acquired in-process research and development. Under generally accepted
     accounting principles, any value associated with this acquired in-process
     research and development will be expensed immediately. The accompanying pro
     form condensed combined income statements exclude the effects of the charge
     due to its nonrecurring nature.

     As a result of the Acquisition, the Company expects to have certain
     duplicative assets. Any duplicative assets which are owned by ADIC will be
     expensed immediately. In addition, the Company expects to incur costs of
     integration subsequent to the consummation of the Acquisition which costs
     are not included in the proforma condensed combined income statements.

     (a)  Represents the cash consideration of $24.8 million and estimated
          acquisition expenses of approximately $250 thousand related to the
          Acquisition which was financed from existing cash of the Company and a
          loan from Seafirst Bank.

     (b)  Represents estimated valuation of tangible and intangible assets,
          including acquired in-process research and development, resulting from
          the preliminary allocation of the purchase price. Valuation of the
          intangible assets acquired was conducted by an independent third-party
          appraisal company and consists of purchased developed technology,
          in-process research and development and assembled workforce.

          The table below is a summary of the estimated amounts allocated to
          intangible assets acquired (in thousands):

              Acquired developed technology                        $2,900
              Assembled workforce                                  $  650
              Other                                                $  150
</TABLE>

          The intangible assets noted above will be amortized over periods
          ranging from one to five years. The acquired in-process research and
          development has not yet reached technological feasibility and has no
          alternative future use. The value assigned to this asset will be
          expensed as a non-recurring, non-tax deductible charge upon
          consummation of the Acquisition. This amount has been reflected as a
          reduction to shareholders' equity and has not been included in the pro
          forma condensed combined income statements due to its non-recurring
          nature.

          The existence of acquired in-process research and development and
          acquired developed technology was determined by a third-party
          independent appraisal. This appraisal identified a library storage
          product and associated software being developed as well as certain
          separate software products. The Company expects to incur significant
          costs to develop the acquired in-process research and development into
          commercially viable products. The value of the acquired in-process
          research and development and developed technology was determined by
          estimating future revenues and costs of the products, including cost
          of capital and taxes, to the estimated product life cycle then
          discounting the estimated projected cash flows.

          The estimated annual amortization charge to operations related to
          intangible assets approximated $987 thousand. This charge is reflected
          in the pro forma condensed combined income statements.

     (c)  Pro forma adjustment to reflect liabilities associated with
          anticipated workforce and office changes.

     (d)  Represents the payoff by E-Systems of the short-term obligations of 
          EMASS" 80% owned subsidiary Grau Storage Systems GmbH & Co. KG 
          ("Grau") and the forgiveness of the debt to parent company.

     (e)  Reflects the minority interest associated with Grau.

     (f)  Represents adjustments to reflect the elimination of common stock,
          retained deficit and cumulative translation adjustments of EMASS.

     (g)  Adjustment to eliminate intercompany sales and cost of sales.

     (h)  Adjustment to reflect the amortization expense of acquired developed
          technology and assembled workforce.

     (i)  Adjustment to reduce interest expense for the repayment of the
          short-term obligations of Grau and to reflect interest expense on the
          new loan associated with the Acquisition.

     (j)  Pro forma adjustment for income taxes on expenses expected to be
          deductible for tax purposes.

3.   DEFERRED TAXES

     There are significant deferred tax assets which the Company expects to
     recognize based on the net tax effect of book/tax differences in the
     acquired intangibles, excluding acquired in-process research and
     development, and differences created as a result of reducing property,
     plant and equipment. A valuation allowance is anticipated for 100% of such
     deferred tax asset.
