Da samo šta Seagate ne kupuje cijeli zamzung, pa ne kupuje il preuzima kak god poluvodički dio ni bilo kaj drugo, nego samo HDD odjel. Druga stvar ako budu imali kakav popust, ak si to mislio.

There's quite a bit more to this deal than just Samsung's HDD business changing hands, though.
...
A NAND flash memory supply agreement under which Samsung will provide Seagate with its market-leading semiconductor products for use in Seagate’s enterprise solid state drives (SSDs), solid state hybrid drives and other products
...
That NAND supply agreement is particularly interesting, because yes, in case you forgot, Seagate does offer a line of solid-state drives—and Samsung just happens to be the world's biggest supplier of NAND flash memory. Also, that half-cash, half-stock payment means Samsung will end up with 9.6% ownership of Seagate. I imagine the word "synergy" was used extensively during the negotiations, and quite rightly so.

In any case, the deal is expected to close by the end of the calendar year. That will leave the hard drive market with just three major players: Western Digital, Seagate, and Toshiba. (WD agreed to buy out Hitachi Global Storage Technologies earlier this year, and Toshiba took on Fujitsu's hard-drive back in 2009.)
