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.

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.
