Under the terms of the accord, EMC would continue to purchase advanced IBM disk drives for incorporation into its Symmetrix Enterprise Storage systems.

The alliance also provides for a broad patent cross-licence between the two companies for storage and other technologies. In addition, the companies agred to work together to further develop mutually beneficial business opportunities.

The EMC Corporation, a Fortune 500 company based in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, is the world's leading supplier of intelligent enterprise storage systems and software for mainframe and open systems environments.
