"Since we entered the network attached storage business (define) in the fall of 1999, the growth rate of this market has fallen
far short of expectations," said Mike Cannon, president and chief executive officer of Maxtor. "Over the same period, the NAS market
has become rapidly commoditized by the entrance of a number of global OEMs with their own branded products. This has placed us in
competition with some of our largest hard disk drive customers. Exiting the NAS business will allow us to focus on our core hard
disk drive markets, further reducing expenses and accelerate Maxtor's return to profitability."
