Hybrid Hard Drives

Many businesses need a backup hard drive that combines ease of use with data recovery features in one single "hybrid" product. ioSafe hardware delivers you the best in hybrid hard drive technology combining fire safe protection with waterproof and flood proof design, ensuring your data can be recovered no matter how simple or severe the disaster might be.

Using the best in standard hard drives from Seagate(R) technologies, ioSafe combines enterprise class 7200 rpm hard drives inside a fireproof safe with FloSAFE air cooled technology. This allows for the best reliability from the industry standard in hard drive engineering and technology.

The Importance of Air Cooling
The topic of air cooling of computer servers and hard drives probably doesn't need to beat into the ground more than it already has been...however there is still much education that needs to be done with respect to operating temperatures during normal day to day activities in the server room or closet.

The bottom line is, heat is the number one enemy of hard drives. Reliability is of the greatest importance when it comes to recovering data. With that said, choose a fireproof hard drive that allows for proper cooling of the hard drives and electronics, yet still maintains superior fire and flood protection.

USB RAID Drive from ioSafe Hardware

ioSafe has just released their new USB RAID backup device called the S2. Capacities for this USB Hard Disk system is up to 2TB with a RAID 0/1. The storage capacity is far greater than your traditional external drive from the retail store shelf. In todays business world external drives are a necessary part of the modern office and easier to maintain than CD or DVD backup. Keep in mind that you can easily replace tape backup drives (LTO, DLT, VXG, 4mm) with an ioSafe system and become more efficient while saving money.

The USB external drive features two removable hard drives that are also lockable for physical data security. If a hard drive fails on the unit an audible alarm will sound to notify you that a disk needs replaced. As with all ioSafe hardware you get a data storage device that is fireproof and waterproof like an aircraft black box. One of the most dynamic features of this USB RAID device is that it has airflow cooling (a key differentiator from similar products) to ensure true business class reliability.

Other standard features are a 3 year warranty and $5,000 per disk data recovery service. Getting an extra $10,000 insurance policy for your digital data is certainly priceless. It's been said before... 'You can be replaced, your data cannot.'
