1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:09,120
so that video that's going around virally about how unboxings are stupid

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:10,880
um I will do as he requested I'm just

3
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:16,000
going to do away with the Box on this one very quickly here's the unboxing

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:20,760
component of today's video there it's gone I'm not going to talk about the

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:23,000
matching connector or the matching uh I

6
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:26,519
don't know whatever they're called packing materials okay we're just going

7
00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:30,240
to we're just going to take off this plastic without any ceremony whatsoever

8
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:33,759
there you go are you happy is that better is that a better video

9
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:42,280
done just kidding guys I'm not done already okay so this is the Cloud store

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:46,840
powered by pogo plug this is a buffalo external hard drive product all right

11
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:51,960
the things that it comes with are a flat Ethernet cable which is very nice

12
00:00:49,879 --> 00:00:55,800
looking you don't usually see uh products like this come with a nice high

13
00:00:53,680 --> 00:01:02,160
quality Ethernet cable like that it's terrific all right we've also got an AC

14
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:04,239
todc power adapter so it's a 12vt 4 amp

15
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:08,920
power adapter got a plug looks a little something like that okay and we have a

16
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:14,600
wall plug that plugs into the power adapter look at this it goes in this way

17
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:16,840
or it goes in this way your choice

18
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:20,159
Innovative okay no I'm just kidding that's not the part of this as

19
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:24,240
Innovative so you can access and share anytime and anywhere so you have secure

20
00:01:22,159 --> 00:01:30,640
accessible storage remote access from anywhere easy secure sharing and no

21
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:33,439
service contracts or fees now that part

22
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:39,040
is cool this is a one tbte product it's a 2 Bay single hard drive so what that

23
00:01:36,399 --> 00:01:44,960
means is that Buffalo has innovatively found a way to make their device have a

24
00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:46,640
single hard drive take up two bays no

25
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:51,240
I'm just kidding that's not how it works what actually happens is you take off

26
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:55,680
the front here and you can install an additional drive into the Cloud store if

27
00:01:54,200 --> 00:02:03,640
you'd like so I'm just going to show you guys the procedure for removing the drive that is pre-installed you just do

28
00:02:00,119 --> 00:02:06,640
that and then you can pull out the drive

29
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:10,599
so inside we have a Seagate Barracuda

30
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:12,840
7200.12 1 tbte drive and we can go ahead

31
00:02:10,599 --> 00:02:17,879
and put it back in should be so

32
00:02:15,959 --> 00:02:21,040
desire just like that so now it's clipped in it's not going to go anywhere

33
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:25,680
so you just use the loop to pull it out from the back so you can actually see the mechanism here that pulls it out and

34
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:31,840
just pull this down so that it'll come out all right so let's go ahead and

35
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,840
throw the front back on

36
00:02:33,319 --> 00:02:40,120
there we are okay so we have power function as well as info SL error LEDs

37
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:45,280
on the front of the unit although there's no power switch on the front of the unit because innovatively Buffalo

38
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:51,200
has located that on the back we have our power in a Kensington lock we've also

39
00:02:47,599 --> 00:02:53,879
got our Ethernet port we have Auto on

40
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:59,159
and off for our power switch as well as one USB port and a function

41
00:02:56,959 --> 00:03:04,120
button let's see what else Buffalo has to say for themselves elves on the Cloud

42
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:09,480
store box so there's your home network so that means you can take apparently

43
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,799
music documents videos and whatever that

44
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:16,799
is oh pictures and you can stream them to your home computer to a mobile device

45
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:20,879
such as an iPad and then from there you can go to the Internet which is the

46
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:24,959
cloud aspect of this particular device and you can access your data with a

47
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:28,920
mobile device such as a smartphone uh like the Apple iPhone Android or

48
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:32,200
blackberry and palm wow so they've got full support for all those different

49
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:36,400
platforms there that's really cool and then a PC or a Mac so whether that's a

50
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:40,560
laptop or a desktop whatever the case may be if you have network access you

51
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:45,080
will be able to get your files so here they actually show the software so

52
00:03:42,959 --> 00:03:49,000
here's uh Austin evidently so there's a bunch of photos here these are Brian's

53
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:51,360
photos from Europe and you've got a bunch of different things here actually

54
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,439
we should have a look at the software in a couple minutes here so you can freely access share and you can share your

55
00:03:53,920 --> 00:04:00,280
photos slideshows videos and music and much more with anyone anywhere through the cloud no contract set up the Cloud

56
00:03:58,799 --> 00:04:05,159
store in second so we're going to test that how long it actually takes to do that adding capacity is a snap by

57
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:09,720
inserting a second hard drive so I actually don't see anything in here

58
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:13,480
about raid so it looks like all you get to do by adding an additional Drive is

59
00:04:11,599 --> 00:04:16,600
just increase the capacity you've got an intuitive web interface setup Cloud

60
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:20,680
stores Drive letter or a device on your PC your user experience Remains the Same

61
00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:25,240
whether you are at home or away it supports bit torrent UPnP and apparently

62
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:28,840
Facebook and Twitter so that's kind of neat what else is here oh that is a

63
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:33,240
gigabit Ethernet port so the speed of this device should could be pretty

64
00:04:30,199 --> 00:04:35,120
decent and it does support raid one or

65
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:39,360
jbod so jbod means that you're just increasing the capacity raid one means

66
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:42,720
you can throw in two identical drives and you can have them mirrored for

67
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:47,160
additional data security so thank you for checking out my unboxing of the

68
