According to data storage manufacturer Western Digital, the company has lost6.5 billion gigabytes of flash storage due to contamination during production. Converted to other storage units we're looking at around 6.5 exabytes or 6.5 million terabytes. That's a lot of flash storage.

According to market research company TrendForce, Western Digital makes upabout 30 percent of the total flash storage market. The firm says that this contamination can cause the price of NAND, which is the main component in faster and newer solid-state drives (SSDs), to skyrocket by 10 percent.

Supply chain problems combinedwith other issues, such as cryptocurrency mining, have caused shortages for all kinds of computer components.

As of now, it's not clear if any products that hit the market were affected by contamination or if any recalls will be necessary. In a public statement, Western Digital said its currently working towards resuming production at its facilities.
