BEIJING, Nov 14, 2011 - (ACN Newswire) - Joint-edges.com reports that Dell said that Thailand's floods will lead to the tight supply of PC's hard disks. Dell is actively examining the flood situation in Thailand. Although the supply chain of the hard drives is limited in the coming weeks, it is working closely with HDD suppliers to mitigate its influence on the clients. As to the suppliers that have been affected, Dell's engineering team has to cooperate to determine the state of the industry in order to manage the supply chain of hard drives in the most effective way.
According to the recent research of Joint-edges.com (http://www.joint-edges.com/products.html), as the Thailand flooding lasts for two months, leading to many local hard disk factories are closed. This may have an impact on the PC manufacturers and the impact will spread to the next year. Thailand supplies 40% of the global hard drives, which is very crucial to the supply of storage components.
Joint-edges.com points out that due to plant closures, in the worst case, the PC shipments in the first quarter of the next year may reduce 20%. Even the largest hard drive manufacturer will face shortages of hard disks, particularly in the portable PC market. This area will have more integration.
