Seagate Extends its Retail Presence in Hong Kong

Educating consumers on the importance of protecting their valuable digital content is paramount for Seagate Technology (NYSE:STX), the world’s leading supplier of hard disc drives and consumer storage solutions. Extending this message, Seagate is launching four new products in Hong Kong to help consumers store, share, protect, organize and access their digital lives. Award-winning Seagate and Maxtor branded solutions available in November include the Seagate Pocket Drive, the Maxtor OneTouch(tm) III Mini Edition, the Maxtor OneTouch III external storage solution with automatic backup, and the Maxtor Shared Storage(tm) II network storage solution.

In addition to launching the new products, Seagate’s goal is to raise awareness of how easy it is to protect data either automatically or with the push of a button, and of the importance of doing so not only for businesses, but in an era of digital photographs and music downloads, for home PC users as well. For instance, Hong Kong consumers have an insatiable appetite for video downloading and peer-to-peer file sharing and are amassing vast amounts of digital content. With that, they are at risk of losing their data if it’s not protected.

“With a booming economy and one of the world’s largest Internet communities, Hong Kong represents a key market for Seagate and a tremendous opportunity for the company to continue to grow its worldwide community of consumer backup advocates,” said Andrew Yang, country manager, China, Seagate Technology. “Storage is an essential element of a home or office whether it’s inside a computer, attached to a home network or connected externally to a computer or laptop. Consumers need a solution that they can rely on to protect their digital files such as family photos, music collections, and games as well as personal and business documents. Offering our products in Hong Kong gives consumers a variety of choices and peace of mind in knowing they are getting high-quality solutions from a company they can trust.”
