Micron Technology and Seagate Technology have announced a new strategic agreement that establishes a framework of combining the innovation and expertise of both companies and will enable customers of these two companies to benefit from a focused approach to deliver new storage solutions.

While this new multi-year agreement will initially focus on next-generation SAS SSDs and strategic NAND supply, according to announced details, it will also extend into future collaboration on enterprise storage solutions as well.

"This agreement enables Seagate to secure a strategic supply of NAND flash memory and enables collaboration on future products and technologies," said Phil Brace, Executive Vice President, Electronics Solutions, Seagate. "Our companies are leaders in the storage industry, and in working together we build on that success."

"The collaboration will assure both Seagate and Micron target the growing enterprise flash market with industry-leading offerings across both of our product portfolios," said Darren Thomas, Vice President of Storage, Micron. "The relationship provides Micron access to enterprise drive technology and platforms, expanding our portfolio and accelerating our push into the enterprise market segment."

The new strategic agreement will surely bring some interesting products from Seagate and Micron in future and we can't wait to see the end result.
