Hitachi-LG Data Storage (HLDS), a joint venture between Hitachi and LG, is a manufacturer of DVD and Blu-ray disk drives for desktop and notebook computers. Founded in November 2000, the company began operation in January 2001, and shipped its first product, the HL-DT-ST GCC-4120B combo drive, in June of that year. In July 2006, HLDS began developing Blu-ray Disc drives.

Their drives identify themselves to the computer in which they are installed as "HL-DT-ST" - Hitachi-LG Data Storage - followed by its actual model number.
