9-30-99Western Digital Recalls Hard Drives IRVINE, Calif. (AP) — A defective computer chip has forced Western Digital Corp. to recall 400,000 hard disk drives. Western Digital officials said it was unclear how many of the affected hard drives actually were in consumer hands or how much the recall would cost. The company, which supplies equipment to Gateway Inc. and Compaq Computer Corp., said many of the disk drives were still in the hands of manufacturers and sellers. The defect can cause the hard drives — the part of the computer that stores data — to fail to power up after six to 12 months of use, company officials said Monday. ``No data has been lost, and none is in danger of being lost,'' said Charles Haggerty, Western Digital's chief executive. The recall is the latest in a string of problems, including recent layoffs and a plunging stock price, for the Orange County-based computer company. The hard drives being recalled are part of the WD Cavair series. They were made between Aug. 27 and last Friday, and have drive capacities between 6.4 gigabytes and 20.5 gigabytes, the company said. Consumers who purchased computers in the past month can check specification sheets on their machines to see if they include a Western Digital drive, officials said. The company's Web site, www.westerndigital.com, offers a software program that can be downloaded to identify affected products.
