  • Raising target price to $600

    Western Digital produces dynamic random access memory-based HDDs. WDC's products are used in cloud and on-premises data centers, desktop and notebook PCs, enterprise storage, video surveillance, networking products, DVRs, point-of-sale devices, and set-top boxes. In May 2016, WDC acquired NAND flash leader Sandisk. In October 2023, WDC announced plans to unwind that acquisition and spin off the NAND flash business. That deal was concluded in February 2025, returning WDC to a pure-play HDD manufacturer.
