With the LaCie CloudBox, you've got everything you need for storage and backup. Just copy and paste your files to your CloudBox, and they will automatically be backed up online daily. It’s that simple: your data is backed up on a local hard drive and again in the cloud for double protection. The CloudBox includes a one-year online backup contract for 100GB, which can be easily renewed. Just plug the box into your network, and a simple setup wizard makes the CloudBox ready for backup in minutes. On both Windows or Mac computers, just drag and drop your files to the CloudBox, and they will be uploaded automatically to the cloud. Hybrid storage means your files are doubly protected, with one copy on the local hard drive, and another in the cloud.  More

LaCie CloudBox 100GB Hard Drive Further Details

Easily Store Data on Your CloudBox
An intuitive interface helps you get started in minutes. 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.

Automatic Encrypted Online Backup
You don’t have to be a computer expert to back up your files to the cloud. All files stored on your CloudBox are automatically backed up every day 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.

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.

    Great product!

    By neeBe

    from Sheffield

    Pros

    • 128-bit AES encryption
    • Easy To Setup
    • Easy to use
    • Great concept
    • Super safe

    Cons

    • So far none

    Best Uses

    • Backup

    I've been using the cloudbox for a couple of months now, and can't be happier with it. The drive automatically creates a copy of my files on its internal hard drive. Then the data is encrypted and sent to the cloud, where it's always available form anywhere there's an internet connection. I love the concept. It's safe and easy!

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Fast and reliable

    By Falon E.

    from Sheffield

    Pros

    • 128-bit AES encryption
    • Fast
    • Super safe

    Cons

    • All good

    Best Uses

    • Remote backup

    This is my first hybrid drive of this kind and I'm very happy with it. The device needs to be setup once, and then the data is automatically copied to the local backup drive and to the cloud. The data is further protected by 128-bit AES encryption and a password. Being able to roll back up to 10 versions and restore deleted files is very convenient. No complaints so far.

    Very Satisfied

    By SDavin

    from Leeds

    Pros

    • 128-bit AES encryption
    • All cables included
    • Good software suite
    • Super safe

    Cons

    • None

    Best Uses

    • Backup Drive

    I love this CloudBox! Setup was very easy. The device works seamlessly and provides excellent security for my files. The package contains a NAS drive with online backup service, a CD with all necessary software, cables and a power supply. It may seem expensive for 100GB, but it's still cheaper than what other cloud service providers are asking for the same amount of storage as far as I know. And it's more secure with CloudBox (128-bit AES encryption and password protection). I've had my CloudBox for a few months now and I'm loving it!

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Great Product

    By LC

    from Birmingham

    Pros

    • Easy to use
    • High quality
    • Reliable
    • User Friendly

    Cons

      Best Uses

        After having several computer failures over the past couple of years, I've decided to make sure that my most important files will never be lost again. LaCie's CloudBox seemed to be the best option for me, since it's a hybrid of local and cloud storage. The price seemed fair for what it is, so I gave it a try. The setup was very easy, the files are encrypted locally before they are sent to the cloud. CloudBox has been performing seamlessly so far. Actually the more I use it, the more I like it!

        Double protection of valuable data

        By RE

        from Leicester

        Pros

        • Double backup
        • Extensive compatibility
        • Great concept

        Cons

        • Can't think of any

        Best Uses

        • Backup
        • Work

        I have a small but very valuable work archive (some 60 GB) that I've been putting together over many years. I simply can't afford to loose it. And since it's not wise to rely on hardware alone, I was looking for a reasonably priced cloud storage solution. CloudBox ticked all the boxes. It's a compact 100GB NAS drive that's connected to my PC via local network and via internet to the cloud. After the files have been uploaded to the hard drive of the CloudBox they are automatically copied to the cloud. Data can be restored at any time from any machine – all you need is a password, which is also the key to encrypted data. This is a truly reliable and secure solution.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Very secure backup solution

        By asharpe

        from Bristol

        Pros

        • 128 bit AES encyption
        • Easy to use
        • Good value
        • On Off scheduling option
        • Super safe

        Cons

        • All good

        Best Uses

        • Backup

        Great unit. I feel my data is very safe now. No matter what happens to my CloudBox, I know I'll always be able to access my files on the cloud. I've been using online backup solutions before, and I do like the concept. But if you backup directly on the cloud the upload time can be very long, whereas with CloudBox it's instant. The backup is saved on the CloudBox locally in a matter of minutes, and then the device encrypts and uploads the data to the cloud. Meanwhile I can disconnect my computer and go. I love it!
