Yes. Okay. I mean that idea that on the hard drive side, your focus isn't on supply growth. Like what if demand comes back? I mean, it seems like it could be a very good backdrop for drives in the sense of what's your ability to respond to a pickup in demand. And because it's such a complicated supply chain with so many parts, and it's been bad for so long, frankly, that I would think some of your subcomponent suppliers have limited flexibility as well.
David Goeckeler
Yes. Well, remember that in the drive business, even you're coming back to more exabytes, but units, it's still going down, right? So we've sized the business for what we think the number of units we need going forward that will keep the market balanced and that's where we want to stay because every quarter you go forward, the mix moves forward to higher capacity drives, you're adding exabytes through more capacity per unit. But I think the drive business has been persistently oversupplied for what, maybe 15 years, 20 years.
I mean everybody talks about the Thailand flood, it's like more, I mean it's like the only time where we had supplied more demand than supply in the drive business was when we had a flood in Thailand. And I was just there like 3 weeks ago, and they still have the thing on the wall that tells you how high the water went, but I don't think the drive industry should be any different than any other industry in the data center, right? You can't just show up in the quarter, you need something and you get it. And that's the way the business has been run for a very long time because of this persistent oversupply.
And I talked about earlier, we've now the downturn was a brutal downturn it had impact on quite frankly, a lot of people's families that work in those places that we are underemployed. And so we want to set the supply at a certain level. And then when we get visibility and conviction on sustained demand, not demand that just shows up for 1 quarter or 2 quarters or 3 quarters. I mean sustained demand for a long time, then we can start talking about if we put supply back in the system. But we're -- we're not at that point yet. We'll see how quickly we get there. I do think we're -- I do think in the next several quarters, we'll get back to supply-demand balance drive industry for maybe the first time in a long time.

WDC and STX are clearing their inventories, and it will take some time.
I believe if what WDC said the conference is true which the demand is actually recovering, then it is going to take 2-3 quarters until they start to order from their subcomponent suppliers.

Nvidia Expects to Win Outsized Chunk of Data Center Spending

The #1 problem with all of the optical discs is time. You can put them in a UV blocking, static free envelope, place that envelope in a wooden box, put that in a cardboard box, and then leave it in a vault for 7 years. When you open it and place it in a drive, you are looking at a 35% readability.

Why is Malaysia becoming the "center of AI manufacturing"? The aim of NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang
NVIDIA, having surpassed Google and Amazon in market capitalization, is part of the Magnificent 7, attracting global attention to its investment trends. A significant recent investment by the company is in Malaysia. In December 2023, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang visited Malaysia and pointed out the country's potential to become a manufacturing hub in the AI sector. He also reported plans to collaborate with the country's conglomerates on building supercomputers and developing large-scale language models. This article explores why Malaysia is gaining attention in the semiconductor and AI sectors.
Huang highly values Malaysia's potential
With NVIDIA surpassing Google and Amazon in market capitalization, interest in the company's development and investment trends has increased.
One of the recent highlights regarding NVIDIA is the expansion of its investment in Malaysia.

Samsung’s profits surge over 900% in first three months of 2024

Memory semiconductor industry is a very tough industry.
Oversupply will cause the memory semiconductors suppliers like Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron and etc to cut price in order to clear the inventories. They will start to layoff employees and reduce the output of the production in order to survive the downcycle. The good news is, once the inventory level in the industry is back to normal, the suppliers will start to increase the price of the products. Hence, their margin will slowly back to "normal".

Actually this memory industry upcycle is predicted since Q3'23. Nothing is so special since everyone in the market already acknowledge the trend.
For instance, you may refer to NAND/HDD suppliers like WDC, STX, and Micron share prices.
The market is inefficient, and our job is to discover the inefficiencies and make money from them.

Samsung results doesn't affect Dufu. But Seagate n Western Digital will affect Dufu earnings as they are mainly HDD manufacturers. Looking at Seagate n WD latest results are still on downtrend, maybe we next to see their next quarterly reports

Yes. Okay. That makes sense. And then you guide one quarter at a time, which I appreciate, but any sense on the durability of the good things that you're seeing beyond the current quarter?
David Goeckeler
Well, if I look at the drive business, we're getting -- we're coming back. We did a lot of work during the downturn where we just structurally remove capacity from the system. So I think the drive industry is an industry that has been going through this client to cloud transition for literally 15 years. And the client business, there's just a lot more unit capacity that in the system that is required in a nearline dominated business. So we've just removed that from the system, I think we've signaled that to our customers. We don't have as much capacity as we had in the past. And in return, they're giving us more visibility into what their ordering looks like throughout the rest of the year. So in the drive business, we came into the fiscal year believing we're going to see sequential growth throughout the fiscal year, certainly, in the first half of the year, first 3 quarters of the year, we're seeing that.
And last earnings call, we extended that to this calendar year. So we feel good about that business in a return to kind of reversion to the mean of the 20%, 20% to 25% through cycle exabyte growth we're getting back to that.
