Seagate Technology
Shugart Technology

    A major manufacturer of hard disk drives, founded
   in 1979 as "Shugart Technology" by Alan F. Shugart and
   Finis Conner.  That name is on the original patents for the
   5.25" hard disk drive.  They changed the name to Seagate
   Technology soon after to avoid confusion, and also to avoid
   friction with Xerox, which had since purchased Alan's
   earlier company, Shugart Associates.
