<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">SAN JOSE, Calif. &#150; Nov. 27, 2018 &#150; Western Digital Corp. (NASDAQ: WDC) today announced that Mark Long, chief financial officer, chief strategy
officer and president, Western Digital Capital, has decided he will step down from his current role to pursue opportunities as a private equity investor. Western Digital has begun a comprehensive search for a successor. To ensure a smooth leadership
transition, Long will remain an active member of the company&#146;s leadership team through June&nbsp;1, 2019. Long will remain chief financial officer until his departure or until a permanent successor is appointed. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Long has served as Western Digital&#146;s chief financial officer since 2016. Prior to that, he served as the company&#146;s executive vice
president and chief strategy officer since February 2013. Additionally, Long has served as president, Western Digital Capital, a strategic investment fund targeting innovative companies within the data infrastructure and broader technology industry
aligned to Western Digital&#146;s strategic plan, since February 2013. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;On behalf of the Western Digital Board of Directors and
leadership team, I want to thank Mark for his valued partnership and tremendous contributions to the company over the years,&#148; said Steve Milligan, Western Digital chief executive officer. &#147;Mark has been instrumental in developing and
overseeing the company&#146;s growth strategy, including our successful acquisitions and integrations of Hitachi Global Storage Technologies and SanDisk. He helped create the foundation for Western Digital&#146;s leadership in today&#146;s
data-driven world, and we are now well positioned to capitalize on the long-term opportunities associated with rapid growth in the volume and value of data. We wish Mark the best in his future endeavors and look forward to discussing the
company&#146;s long-term vision and strategy on Dec. 4, 2018, at our 2018 Investor Day.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;It&#146;s been a privilege to serve
Western Digital in a variety of financial and strategic leadership roles, and I&#146;m proud of what we have accomplished,&#148; said Long. &#147;We have built a comprehensive and flexible platform for growth and long-term value creation, and I want
to thank my highly talented colleagues for their support. I am fully committed to ensuring a seamless transition, and excited to watch Western Digital build upon this strong momentum and drive the next phase of growth.&#148; </P>
