Explanatory Note

On February 12, 2007, SimpleTech, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original 8-K”) that disclosed, among other things, the consummation by the Company of the sale of assets of its Consumer Division. Unaudited pro forma financial statements of the Company giving effect to the sale of the assets of the Consumer Division were filed as Exhibit 99.5 thereto. The purpose of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A is to correct a printer error that resulted in the inadvertent omission of the pro forma information pertaining to the benefit for income taxes of approximately $1.5 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. This omission did not affect the calculation of net loss for this period which was stated correctly at approximately $1.6 million. In addition, the Company referenced the amount of the pro forma cash consideration as of September 30, 2006 in (i) the notes to the unaudited pro forma financial statements, (ii) the table to the notes and (iii) the pro forma balance sheet. The pro forma cash consideration referenced in the notes should have indicated an amount of approximately $58.5 million but instead reflected approximately $59.7 million. The pro forma cash consideration originally presented on the pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2006 and in the table to the notes was stated correctly at approximately $58.5 million. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A corrects the discrepancy in the pro forma cash consideration appearing in the notes to be consistent with the pro forma cash consideration the Company presented on the pro forma balance sheet as of September 30, 2006 and in the table to the notes.

The unaudited pro forma financial statements, which have been revised to correct the foregoing errors, are attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A and are incorporated by reference herein. The revised Exhibit 99.1 attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A supersede and replace in its entirety, Exhibit 99.5 which was attached to the Original 8-K.
