Also added to the 'Disk's repertoire was the Cruzer Titanium Plus -- a 4GB USB flash drive that automatically uploads encrypted copies of every file added to the drive to a secure server. Interestingly, the service is provided by BeInSync, but the servers used are provided by Amazon Web Services, so there should be some peace of mind that your home-made porn and hate speeches are in safe hands.
"This is true 'set it and forget it' data protection. Many users have told us they worry about losing their data, and now SanDisk is reducing that anxiety through an innovative new form of online backup," claimed good ol' Hezy Rotman, vice president and general manager of SanDisk's USB Division. "We believe Cruzer Titanium Plus will encourage people to use flash drives for storing important data, not just transferring files from one computer to another."
The drive comes with six months of service right out of the box. After that, you'll be charged $29.99 (£15) on a per-year basis for further service. Not bad for a drive that costs just $59.99 (£30). Expect a US launch in March. There was no mention of a UK availability date, but expect it to rip us off compared to Yank Land when one is announced.
