postheadericon LaCie's CloudBox Combines Offline Storage with Online Backups

We 're constantly preach the importance of securing data as a preventative measure against Murphy' s Law. Hard disk drive failure, and while it never happened at an opportune time because backups there is the difference between shouting out a series of obscenities and a hole in the wall, and muttered a few curse words under your breath before moving on. LaCie wants to help you track this with the new CloudBox, a hybrid storage system, back up your files in two locations.

You plug it in, lifted him up and sit back as the CloudBox automatically shuttle data from your local hard disk in the cloud. In this way, even if a fire breaks out or ninjas come crashing through your home destroyed everything in the eyes, you 'll have an online copy of your backed up data.

"No other product in one step process for backing up your files in two locations offers, so you always get a second copy for the ultimate in data security," says LaCie. "Simply backup files from your PC or Mac computer with CloudBox -. Local Backup provides quick access to files and sends the recovery in the event of PC failure CloudBox then automatically copy your files to the cloud, every day - make sure that your data safe and accessible from anywhere. "

You don 't have to keep connected to the CloudBox to your PC, so if you' re rocking a laptop or backup data from multiple computers, you \ re free ', separate the CloudBox and it is still upload your files. And prying eyes from spying your documents, maintain the CloudBox features AES encryption.

Sounds like a solid idea to us, although the CloudBox is only available in 100GB capacity. That 's probably enough to hold all your important data, but far behind the fuse, only half the contents of your hard drive 2TB.

The CloudBox is for $ 200 and includes 1 year of on-line backups.
