Flash drive with automatic online backup feature
SanDisk Corporation, Los Angeles has introduced an innovative new concept flash storage drive on this Wednesday which will automatically back up the data that you store in it online.
When you store documents, photos or music into the SanDisk’s Cruzer Titanium Plus USB flash drive, it will automatically back up that data and it’s digital information using a Web Service offered by a new company BeInSync. BeInSync’s Web Service will store the data onto Amazon.com Inc.’s servers as a backup.
This is a first of it’s kind and is the latest in a wave of devices offering such services linking up to the internet to offer better and more reliable features. Products that were previously used as stand-alone, or offline devices are now slowly moving towards such a trend where they will connect to the internet and provide new features to the consumers.
