What many investors remain concerned about is that Western Digital is planning to offer some $17 billion or so in debt to help pay for the SanDisk buyout. Of that large sum, $3.0 billion will be a bridge loan. The rest is a set of traunches that are secured and unsecured debt. The company also telegraphed that it should be able to tap $4 billion of SanDisk’s cash to repay the bridge.
