Description
Summary:In this research, the medium-term future of hard disk drive (HDD) industry in Singapore is studied. Historical developments of global and local HDD landscape are investigated. Michael Porter's Diamond Paradigm is used to analyze, in a macro-level, the competitiveness of the Singapore HDD industry based on the trend of the key driving factors.

A new analytical framework, called the Rapids Model', is developed by the authors for the HDD industry.
