Western Digital has been ordered to pay $553 million in total damages after being found guilty of infringing on patents held by SPEX Technologies. The company’s request for a stay of execution was denied by District Judge James Selna, who stated that WD must either file a bond or pay the damages within a week. WD contends that SPEX did not adequately prove that their devices replicated the functions spelled out in the patent claims. The ruling raises concerns about the company's financial structure as it faces significant court-mandated payouts.
