Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	1. Basis of Presentation The accounting policies followed by Western Digital Corporation (the “Company”) are set forth in Part II, Item 8, Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 28, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly state the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 28, 2013. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. On July 10, 2013, the Company acquired VeloBit, Inc. ("VeloBit") and on September 12, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of sTec, Inc. (“sTec”). These acquisitions are further described in Note 11 below. In connection with the acquisitions, VeloBit and sTec became indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. VeloBit and sTec’s results of operations since the dates of acquisition are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Company management has made estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of certain assets and liabilities in conformity with U.S. GAAP. These estimates and assumptions have been applied using methodologies that are consistent throughout the periods presented. However, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
