We all know that most of our files and data nowadays reside in the infamous “cloud”. We don’t really full know what that ubiquitous term means but we get it. Our stuff is everywhere and nowhere all at the same time, able to be recalled at a moment’s notice. Instead of storing all of our photos, videos, word documents, PDFs, etc. on a local hard drive or flash drive we trust our tech overlords to keep a watchful eye over it for us while it resides on some random server farm. Trading security and peace of mind for easy access and unlimited storage. Sometimes for free but often times for a nominal fee.
However, there soon may be a better way to preserve your files. A safe and secure way that never leaves your side: your very own personal Wi-Fi connected cloud server that you take with you wherever you go. It won’t even matter what devices or services you are using as everything will be universally compatible. Say hello to skyBOX, your new best friend.
Yanko Design explains:
“The skyBOX is the second most powerful piece of tech you can fit into your pocket, after your smartphone. Designed to be the same dimension as a stack of credit cards, the skyBOX gives you the power of having your own Wi-Fi enabled cloud server in your pocket. It’s made to be universally compatible, working with any device that supports Wi-Fi connectivity, and comes with up to 4 terabytes of permanent storage. That’s enough to back up 50 smartphones, store millions of photos from your DSLR, or remotely host your own media server with over 5000 movies to choose from. Moreover, the skyBOX is wireless and portable, so you can carry it around in your pocket, accessing data no matter where you are.
The most obvious benefit of having a wireless drive that’s with you anytime is that aside from its convenience, you don’t need to worry about paying hefty monthly subscription fees for cloud storage. The skyBOX comes with 4 storage tiers, ranging from 512GB to the whopping 4TB. Fitted with the latest generation in wifi technology – Wi-Fi 6, the skyBOX allows you to store files on it and retrieve data wirelessly at speeds as high as 900Mb/s. Whether it’s data from your smartphone, tablet, DSLR, or even work laptop, the skyBOX supports multiple device connectivity, giving you the freedom of sharing files between all your Wi-Fi enabled devices. In theory, that means you can edit videos shot from your camera directly on your smartphone or laptop without manually transferring files. You could, in theory, even watch those videos (or movies on your laptop) directly on your WiFi-enabled TV.”
I may not know what “the cloud” is but I know something cool when I see it and it just doesn’t get much cooler than the skyBOX! The future of cloud storage has arrived. And unlike a black cloud, you’ll actually want this one to follow you around.
