EMC (NYSE: EMC) helped out Quantum (NYSE: QTM) with a $100 million lifeline.
Now there is chatter that EMC may eventually buy the company outright. This comes as the war between Dell (NASDAQ: DELL) and Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) intensifies over 3Par (NYSE: PAR).
Quantum has three times the revenue that 3Par does, and has a much smaller market cap, at nearly 300 million. This compares to the $1.2 billion for 3Par.
In addition to the rumors that EMC may buy Quantum, last year the data storage company provided Quantum with a $100 million lifeline to essentially keep the company afloat.
It looks like now that the company may eventually be swallowed up into EMC.
