People need to keep their content safe and be protected. This explosion of data resulting from mobile devices, internet services and applications is creating new opportunities for the storage industry and drives innovation as well as a fundamental shift in supporting storage ecosystems, which increasingly consist of a complex mix of public and private clouds as well as traditional big capacity SSDs and HDDs. Hence, demand for storage capacity will continue to grow across various market segments, as content and data volumes grow in parallel. As per IDC, the India PC market shipments for Q3 2011 (July – September 2011) stood at 30.90 lakh units i.e. a signifi cant sequential growth of 26.6 per cent over the previous quarter even as the overall year on year growth was noted to be at 10.8 per cent.
