2.       Primary earnings per share amounts are based upon the weighted average
         number of shares and dilutive common stock equivalents for each period
         presented.  Fully diluted earnings per share additionally reflect
         dilutive shares assumed to be issued upon conversion of the Company's
         convertible subordinated debentures.

4.       During the nine months ended April 1, 1995, approximately $18.2
         million of the Company's 9% convertible subordinated debentures, due
         2014, were converted into 1,258,266 shares of the Company's common
         stock.

         The Company repurchased 805,000 shares of its common stock in the open
         market at a cost of approximately $11 million.

5.       On November 8, 1994, the Company entered into a patent cross-license
         agreement with International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM").
         The license granted from IBM covers the Company's entire product line.
         Under the agreement, the Company will make a series of payments to
         IBM.  The payments are not expected to have a material impact on the
         Company.

6.       In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly
         state the results of operations for the three and nine months ended
         April 1, 1995 and March 26, 1994 have been made.  All such adjustments
         are of a normal recurring nature.  Certain information and footnote
         disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
         condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
         Securities and Exchange Commission.  These consolidated financial
         statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
         financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's
         Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1994.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue for the personal storage group ("PSG"), the Company's hard drive 
business targeted at desktop and portable personal computer applications,
totaled $481.2 million in the third quarter of 1995, a decrease of $18.6
million or 4% from the second quarter of 1995.  PSG revenue was impacted in the
third quarter of 1995 by an industry-wide shortage of certain component parts,
which limited the Company's ability to increase unit shipments from the second
quarter. Average selling prices ("ASPs") declined approximately 11% from the
second quarter as the Company shipped a greater proportion of its units to
certain new OEM customers, which resulted in a higher concentration of lower
capacity drives sold during the quarter.  Revenue for PSG for the three and
nine months ended April 1, 1995 increased $93.9 million or 24% and $432.4
million or 45%, respectively, over the corresponding periods of the prior year. 
These increases were the result of a 33% and 55% increase in the volume of
drives shipped over the corresponding three and nine month periods,
respectively, partially offset by a decline in ASPs.

Revenue for microcomputer products ("MCP") totaled $48.1 million in the third
quarter of 1995, down $4.1 million, or 8% from the second quarter of 1995,
primarily due to a decrease in multimedia product revenue, partially offset by
higher sales of input/output products. Revenue for MCP for the three and nine
months ended April 1, 1995 increased $14.5 million or 43% and $36 million or
31%, respectively, as compared with the corresponding periods of the prior
year, reflecting increased revenue across all products lines.

PSG gross margin for the three months ended April 1, 1995 decreased
approximately three and seven percentage points from the second quarter of 1995
and the third quarter of 1994, respectively.  PSG gross margin for the nine
months ended April 1, 1995 decreased by approximately two percentage points from
the corresponding period of the prior year.  The decreases in gross margin
resulted from the higher concentration of lower capacity drives sold during the
quarter, reflecting the shift in customer mix, a decline in ASPs, which were
not fully offset by reductions in product costs, and component shortages. 
MCP gross margin for the third quarter of 1995 increased approximately one
percentage point from the immediately preceding quarter, primarily due to a
change in the mix of products sold.  MCP gross margin for the three and nine
month periods of the current fiscal year increased approximately eight and 10
percentage points, respectively, from the corresponding periods of the prior
year.  The improvements in MCP gross margins were primarily attributable to the
cost benefits realized from selling the wafer fabrication facility during 1994,
which reduced product costs.

ITEM 2.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Research and development expense ("R&D") for the third quarter of 1995
increased approximately $2.6 million or 8% from the second quarter of 1995.
R&D expense for the three and nine months ended April 1, 1995 increased $6
million or 22% and $9.1 million or 11%, respectively, as compared with the
corresponding periods of the prior year.  These increases were primarily
attributable to planned expenditures to support new product introductions for
the current fiscal year and to support its high performance storage product
development activities.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense for the three months ended
April 1, 1995 increased $3.4 million or 11% from the preceding quarter,
primarily due to higher royalty expense in the current quarter.  SG&A expense
for the three and nine month periods of the current year increased $2.1 million
or 7% and $15.6 million or 19%, respectively, as compared with the
corresponding three and nine month periods of 1994.  These increases are
primarily the result of increased selling, marketing and other related expenses
in support of higher revenue levels and higher variable compensation plan
accruals.

Interest and other income for the current quarter was $2.4 million, as
compared with $2.7 million in the preceding quarter and net interest expense of
$.7 million in the third quarter of 1994.  Interest and other income was $8.1
million for the nine months ended April 1, 1995, an improvement of $14.4
million over net interest expense in the corresponding period of the prior
year.  The decrease in interest and other income over the immediately preceding
quarter is primarily due to a reduction in interest expense as a result of the
conversion of $15.6 million of 9% convertible subordinated debentures into
common stock during the current quarter.  The improvement over the prior year
is the result of significantly lower levels of debt outstanding and higher
average cash balances.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Cash and short-term investments totaled $280.3 million at April 1, 1995 as 
compared with $243.5 million at June 30, 1994.  Cash flows from operations
were $78.1 million, with cash flows from earnings, depreciation, and an
increase in current liabilities being offset by cash used to fund increased
receivables and inventories.  Capital additions for the first nine months of
1995 totaled $38.8 million and were incurred primarily for increased disk drive
manufacturing and wafer testing capacity.  Approximately $11 million was also 
used to repurchase 805,000 shares of the Company's common stock in the open 
market.

Notwithstanding the significant improvements in financial position realized
over the past nine months, the ability of the Company to sustain its improved
working capital management and to continue operating profitably is dependent
upon a number of factors including competitive conditions in the marketplace,
general economic conditions, the efficiency of the Company's manufacturing
operations and the timely development and introduction of new products which
address market needs.
