In addition, when I dug through the specs, I noted that these drives include a $1,000 credit toward data recovery in the event of a disk failure. So, while I'd still recommend frequent backups -- stored off-site -- this product looks like a pretty good way of avoiding some of the risks of an onsite backup solution.</p><p><em></em></p><p><em></em></p>
