The 100GB CloudBox Network Hard Drive from LaCie is an exceptional way to save two copies of up to 100GB of your most important computer files. This hard drive can hold up to 100GB of data from your computer and automatically saves that content online to LaCie's Cloud service (you receive a free one-year 100GB subscription). You can backup content from a maximum of ten computers and you can also restore any data that you've saved. When restoring data, you can pick and choose select files and folders and you can restore content from up to 10 previous versions.

This hard drive is outfitted with a Gigabit Ethernet port that connects to your router. Once the drive is connected, you can wirelessly start backing up your Windows or Mac computer's data. Plus, the AES 128-bit encryption your data is secure.

Automatic Encrypted Online Backup
All files stored on your CloudBox are automatically backed up everyday online onto secure servers. Thanks to AES 128-bit encryption, every file is encrypted before it leaves your home or your company. Your online backup is also secure, as access is password-restricted. No one, not even LaCie, can access your files because you are the only one who knows the password.
Easily Store Data on Your CloudBox
The provided LaCie Backup Software for Windows and Mac will back up, a maximum of 10 computers automatically to your CloudBox. Even more simply, you can drag and drop your files to your CloudBox. Your files are safe because the CloudBox is password-protected, so no one in your local network can access your data.
Restore Your Files
If you mistakenly deleted some files on your computer or on your CloudBox, you can restore them to any place where you have an Internet connection. The CloudBox Restore Application allows you to browse your online backup and restore up to 10 previous backup versions. In case of theft (your computers OR your CloudBox) or fire, the CloudBox Restore Application will even allow you to perform a full restore to another computer. Lastly, a replacement CloudBox is able to restore itself from your latest online backup.
Eco-Friendly
As soon as you finish copying your most important files to your CloudBox, you can shut down your computer to save energy. Unlike other online backup services, the CloudBox doesn't need your computer to be on to secure your files online. LaCie CloudBox works independently of any computer.

    Comments about LaCie 100GB CloudBox Network Hard Drive:

    This Cloudbox has turned out to be the best backup solution for me. The main documents folder is automatically backed up to the Cloudbox, which creates a copy on the Cloud. The access is password-protected and the data is encrypted. I find it to be an easy, less expensive and more secure alternative to regular cloud services I've used in the past.

    Comments about LaCie 100GB CloudBox Network Hard Drive:

    I've put a lot of effort and time into my project. Since accidents happen (I actually have some first hand experience here), protecting my work is my first and foremost priority. I've used other Cloud services in the past, but I think CloudBox is better. It's a combination of a local storage and cloud backup. Even if my computer's hard drive or the external drive fail, my files are always available on the Cloud. By the way the data is encrypted before it's sent to the cloud, so nobody but me can access it. By the way, once the CloudBox is setup it does all the work for you. Absolutely hassle-free solution!

    Comments about LaCie 100GB CloudBox Network Hard Drive:

    This is a nice little unit. I've got it a month ago, and it's been working just fine. I've done some research prior to the purchase, and figured out that it was more cost effective to buy CloudBox than subscribing for the same amount of storage with another cloud service provider. The drive comes with a full-scale Cloud backup service, which is very convenient, secure and easy. After the files are copied to the local drive, they are encrypted and automatically backed up to the cloud. Up to ten backup versions are kept on the Cloud, allowing a full restore to any point. The CloudBox is very easy to use. The drive has to be set up once, and then it automatically performs local and remote backup and encryption. I'm very pleased with this device.

    • 128-bit AES encyption
    • advanced backup software

    Cons

      Best Uses

      • Backup

      Comments about LaCie 100GB CloudBox Network Hard Drive:

      I've bought CloudBox for my office, for storing the most valuable and critical data. The drive is based on the mirroring RAID system principle: the data are copied both to the local hard drive and to the cloud, and of course encrypted before they leave the local storage device. The user password works as a decryption key. You lose the password, you lose access to your data. Flexible automatic backup settings make it possible to customize the process to suit specific tasks. As far as the price goes, it is way lower than alternative cloud services that I'm aware of.

      Comments about LaCie 100GB CloudBox Network Hard Drive:

      This is exactly what I needed for my work. I have about 100GB of important files that require constant backup. Until recently I've been backing up my files on a RAID-configured drive. This worked fine, but there's no insurance if something happens to the unit or if it's stolen. I know I may sound a bit paranoid, but I've learned my lessons the hard way. And you can never be too paranoid about security! With CloudBox everything is much easier. The files are encrypted and sent to the cloud in addition to the local backup. They simply cannot be lost. The device is very easy to setup, and once it's configured you can just forget about it.
