Western Digital has announced today that production on hard drives will be slowed down in the next quarter due to severe flooding in Bangkok, Thailand.
The HDD maker has a few facilities in the region.
Floods have caused problems in the region, including transportation and utilities and has even flooded worker's homes.
The company did note that all of its 37,000 employees are currently safe.
Last quarter, WD shipped 32 million HDD from its Thai facilities.
