Toshiba vient de finaliser l’acquisition du fabricant OCZ (voir notre actualité « Toshiba rachète OCZ pour 35 millions de dollars« ). Désormais la firme californienne devient donc une filiale du géant nippon. Sans grande surprise, on créneau restera le domaine du stockage (les SSD principalement) et les logiciels associés.
Suite à ce rachat, le site web d’OCZ a été refondu et OCZ a changé pour devenir « OCZ Storage Solutions ». Les employés et les locaux sont conservés.
Extrait du communiqué de presse :
SAN JOSE, CA—January 21, 2014—Toshiba Corporation, a global technology leader and manufacturer of NAND flash memory, today announced that the Company has finalized the purchase of substantially all assets of OCZ Technology Group, making it a wholly owned subsidiary and Toshiba Group Company. Effective immediately, the Group company will operate independently as OCZ Storage Solutions, a leading provider of high-performance solid state drives (SSDs) for computing devices and systems.
The acquisition provides Toshiba with OCZ’s enterprise and client SSD businesses and enables the established OCZ brand to continue in full force with a current product portfolio that includes SATA and PCIe consumer drives for high-performance and mainstream applications, and SATA, SAS and PCIe enterprise drives supported by virtualization, cache and acceleration software. OCZ Storage Solutions will leverage Toshiba’s cutting-edge NAND and combine it with the Company’s proprietary controllers, firmware and software to provide both client and enterprise customers with innovative and cost-effective solid-state storage solutions.
