Exhibit 99.2

Western Digital Corporation FAQ Regarding MOFCOM Decision

We have received approval from China’s Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”) to integrate substantial portions of our HGST and WD subsidiaries under Western Digital Corporation. This includes our corporate functions, research and development, heads and media operations, engineering, and manufacturing. This is an important step in our ongoing business transformation. Unifying HGST and WD under WDC will create new opportunities for innovation and efficiency which will provide even greater benefits to our customers and shareholders. We expect this integration will result in significant opportunities for growth, synergies, and cost savings.

As a result of MOFCOM’s decision as described in today’s announcement, we believe we will be able to realize approximately $400 million in annual operating expense savings with additional significant cost of goods sold savings. We believe it will take 12 to 24 months to achieve the vast majority of these savings.

Now that we are able to engage in integration planning, we will look to provide more specifics on the integration during the first quarter of calendar 2016.

We will provide periodic updates on integration, with the initial update coming in the first calendar quarter of 2016.

We will continue to offer both HGST and WD product brands in the market through two separate sales teams, as agreed with MOFCOM, and in order to benefit from the rich storage industry heritage of each long-standing brand. These restrictions will last for the next two years, at which time they automatically terminate.

Each sales team will have the ability to offer a full line of products manufactured by the company under their respective brands.

There are no changes to the company’s capital allocation program at this time.

Steve Milligan will continue to serve as chief executive officer of Western Digital Corporation and oversee all business and corporate functions. Mike Cordano, formerly

president of the HGST subsidiary, has been appointed president and chief operating officer of Western Digital by the company’s board of directors. In his new role, Cordano will head a business leadership team with balanced representation of proven leaders from the company’s two former subsidiaries.

Jim Murphy, who previously served as president of the WD subsidiary, will lead the Storage Devices business unit, which includes the company’s HDD and SSD products. Jim Welsh and Dave Tang will lead the company’s Content Solutions and Storage Solutions business units, respectively.

The executive appointments announced today are effective immediately. An organizational chart for the Western Digital senior executive team is available on the company’s Investor Relations website at investor.wdc.com.

Our collective focus on operational excellence, innovation and creating value for customers and shareholders remains the same. The lifting of substantial portions of the “hold separate” restriction enables us to accelerate initiatives focused on delivering value to our customers and shareholders.

We have established a dedicated Integration Management Office team to determine how best to combine the two entities so that we can begin to operate substantially as one company. This team is comprised of HGST and WD representatives from a range of sites and functional areas to ensure balanced representation and a global perspective.

Integration planning activities will begin immediately; we expect integration will occur in phases over the next 24 months.
