x Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.13p-1) for the reporting period from January 1 to December 31, 2013.

SECTION I. CONFLICT MINERALS DISCLOSURE

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

This Form SD of Overland Storage, Inc., (“Overland,” “we” or “our”) is filed pursuant to Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”) for the reporting period January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013.

Overland has evaluated its current product lines and determined that certain products that we manufacture or contract to manufacture contain “conflict minerals” (as defined in Section 1, Item 1.01(d)(3) of Form SD) that are necessary to the functionality or production of our products. Based on a reasonable country of origin inquiry, we do not have sufficient information from our suppliers or other sources to determine the country of origin of the conflict minerals used in our products. Therefore, we cannot exclude the possibility that some of these conflict minerals may have originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) and/or one or more of the countries that share an internationally recognized border with the DRC or are not from recycled or scrap sources. Accordingly, Overland is filing this Form SD and has prepared a Conflict Minerals Report, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.02, in accordance with Form SD required by the Rule.

The Conflict Minerals Report is publicly available at www.overlandstorage.com , under the heading “Investor Relations”. The content of any website referred to in this Form SD is included for general information only and is not incorporated by reference in this Form SD.

Item 1.02 Exhibit

A copy of Overland's Conflict Minerals Report is provided as Exhibit 1.02 hereto and is publicly available at www.overlandstorage.com .

SECTION 2. EXHIBITS

Item 2.01 Exhibit
