In 2024, Western Digital acquired 516 U.S. patents from its subsidiary Sandisk. The acquisitions were completed in two phases: 32 patents in January and a larger batch of 484 patents in December.
The newly acquired patents primarily focus on advancing data storage technologies across several technical domains:
-Data Storage and Management: Innovations in storage virtualization, data management, and hardware design.
-High Performance and Durability Optimization: Enhancements in device performance, durability, thermal management, and energy efficiency.
-Digital Data Security and Recovery: Cutting-edge solutions for data protection and fault recovery.
-Storage Architecture and Design: Multi-interface systems, system integration, and efficient data segmentation.
-Specialized Applications: Techniques for data analysis, compression, and deduplication.
These technologies have diverse applications across multiple industries:
-Server and Cloud Computing: Supporting large-scale data storage and management in data centers.
-Consumer Electronics: Powering SSD-based storage solutions and high-performance computing devices.
-Industrial Computing: Providing robust storage systems for embedded and industrial environments.
Western Digital's acquisition of SanDisk in 2016 for approximately $19 billion marked a significant expansion into the flash memory and data storage markets. Since then, SanDisk has operated as a brand under Western Digital, specializing in flash memory products like SSDs, memory cards, and USB drives, while Western Digital oversees a broader portfolio, including HDDs, SSDs, and data center solutions.
