'''Symbios Logic''' was a manufacturer of [[SCSI]] [[host adapter]] chipsets and [[disk array]] storage subsystems. It was originally established as a division of [[NCR Corporation]] in 1972, before NCR's takeover by [[AT&T Corporation]] in 1991.
In 1995, AT&T sold off the division to [[SK Hynix|Hyundai Electronics]] (later known as Hynix). In July 1998 Hyundai sold Symbios (then located in [[Fort Collins, Colorado]]) to [[LSI Logic]] for $760 million cash.<ref>{{Cite news |title= LSI Logic Agrees to Acquire Symbios, Inc. from Hyundai |date= June 29,1998 |work= Press release |author= LSI Logic |url= http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/cgi/news/release?id=15631 |accessdate= October 21, 2013 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |title= Short Take: LSI to take third-quarter charge |author= Corey Grice |work= CNet news |date= August 7, 1998 |url= http://news.cnet.com/Short-Take-LSI-to-take-third-quarter-charge/2110-1001_3-214240.html |accessdate= October 21, 2013 }}</ref>
