Western Digital

Intersec Expo is underway and we’re bringing AI-ready storage to life with live demos on the floor. Visit us at Booth B26 in the Commercial & Perimeter Security Hall.

At Western Digital, we view innovation not as a moment, but as a long-term strategy. It’s how we build durable technology leadership, navigate industry shifts, and create sustained value as data and AI demands accelerate. Hear more from our CEO, Irving Tan on how innovation has enabled us to thrive. 

Innovation is how we turn hard science into customer value—at scale. From breakthrough technologies to how we build and manufacture responsibly, it’s a mindset embedded across Western Digital.

We pushed sustainability forward in 2025, and four leading organizations recognized the impact of our work. Western Digital was honored with: • Newsweek America’s Greenest Companies 2026 • Inc. Magazine Best Collaboration Award for our Advance Recovery and Rare Earth Recapture Program with Microsoft, Critical Materials Recycling, and PedalPoint Recycling & PedalPoint LifeCycle Solutions • Information Technology Industry Council (ITI) Sustainability Steward Award for our rare earth recapture program • FMS: the Future of Memory and Storage: Most Innovative Sustainability Technology for our rare earth recapture program This recognition reflects measurable progress and shows what’s possible when innovation and partnership are applied at scale.

We'll be at Intersec Expo showcasing how the right storage foundation enables AI as it evolves. Visit us at Booth B26 in the Commercial & Perimeter Security Hall to see live demos of: · High‑capacity HDDs ingesting, storing, and enabling analysis of multi‑stream video in real time · Enterprise platforms that deliver flexibility, performance, and efficiencies at scale across the AI data pipeline Come see the infrastructure that fuels AI. January 12-14.

Jensen Huang said it best at CES: AI is creating an entirely new storage market.   As AI shifts from training to inference, storage becomes indispensable. Turning data into intelligence at scale depends on storage that’s built for performance, reliability, and growth.   At Western Digital, this is the future we’ve been building toward.

In 2025, we celebrated 55 years of innovation by taking bold steps to redefine our future: ✅ Sharpened our focus with the completion of the flash business spin-off ✅ Solidified our leadership in high-capacity HDDs to fuel the AI and cloud supercycle ✅ Delivered one of the strongest stock performances of the year on the S&P 500   We’re entering 2026 with historic momentum as we look ahead to the next 55 years of powering the world's data.

Surveillance systems generate massive amounts of data, and the storage behind them has to keep up. Our surveillance storage portfolio—from edge to enterprise—drew thousands of visitors at IFSEC INDIA 2025, South Asia's largest commercial security expo and conference. Our celebrity Prime Drive campaign and True Drive demo garnered a lot of attention throughout the event, driving conversations about the future of surveillance storage. It was great to connect with everyone who stopped by!

There’s a reason our Chief Human Resources Officer, Katie Watson, starts her conversations around AI differently than most executives. She recently spoke with Jacob Morgan on his podcast, Future Ready Leadership, to explain the logic behind her approach and how it plays out across Western Digital.
