No Innovator's Dilemma : Re-Examining Clayton Christensen's Evidence for Disruptive Technology in the Hard Disk Drive Industry

Christensen (1997) provided evidence for disruptions in the hard disk drive industry by examining the technological changes of disk drives. By building up the disruption model, Christensen argues that the failures of the established firms in the industry to respond to simple technological changes lie in their past experience of how they identified and addressed market needs. This paper critically examines the disruption model and concludes that the disruption model was not supported by the empirical data of the industry, and refuted the low-end disruption
