want a portable power bank Wireless AP SD card and USB reader for your mobile
devices check the link in the video description to learn more about the ad
data DH Drive air ae400 now while I love
data security as much as the next guy in
terms of keeping my precious memories safe it is still pretty hard to get
excited about a Nas because the cold hard truth is they all do basically the
same thing they keep your data store data safe by replicating it across
multiple drives they allow you to centralize your storage in one place
they allow you to build a sort of personal cloud so that you can access
your data on the Go and all of these are good things but the cold hard truth is a
lot of them are either let down by subpar Hardware they're let down by
subpar software or they're let down by just not being interesting or not having
anything different about them enter the io safe n 2 totally different first of
all it starts with packaging check this out that is some of the thickest closed
cell foam that I've ever seen packed around a NZ and there is a very good
reason for that that very good reason is that this thing weighs a frakin ton it
weighs about as much sort of like cubic cm for cubic cimer as a
UPS oh and there's a very good reason for that too this NZ is fireproof and
waterproof it can handle up to, 1500° F
or around 8 140° C for 30 minutes at
lower temperatures it can go for longer and to put that in perspective most
house fires won't go for longer than 30 minutes before a fire department shows
up and puts it out and that's where the waterproofness comes in so not only is
it flood resistant because it can handle 10 ft of fresh or salt water for up to
72 hours but it can handle having the
fire outside of it where it'll be basically red hot by the time the fire
department reaches it and it can handle being hosed down at that point in time
all of this without causing data to be lost on the drives inside you guys you
guys getting crazy with me here yet all right so it's available in a couple of
configurations diskless or with diss installed this right here is the
diskless one but the thing about the installed disc one is that um iosafe
doesn't expect you to actually continue to use the nas after it's been on fire
and after it's been doused down with water they expect you to send it to them
for data recovery they cover shipping both ways which is very very cool and
they even send you back your new N2 so
if it goes on fire or whatever else they send you a new one they send you new
drives inside so your data is completely safe I don't believe there's any deductible on the first one but don't
necessarily quote me on that check the link in the description if you want more details so the in let's go accessories
first I guess so there's a power adapter right there all right power cord got
some screws for installing drives got an Ethernet cable got a small magnet as
well as an iosafe disc and this removal
tool so it has a very unique construction first of all the entire
outside of it is made of steel so
there's no aluminum screws even because aluminum or plastic or any other
materials are going to have serious problems at 1500° F so it's all made of
steel around the backside you can see there is still a ventilation fan and the
way that that works is they actually have vent holes in the front that are
built with kind of a m like structure so that in a fire the Flames themselves
can't get through to reach the drives
and they have to go through the insulation which is uh has a very unique
design as well so it still is allowed to have active cooling it's got a power in
at the back gigabit Ethernet two USB 3.0 ports and a security Kensington lock on
the other side we find not a whole lot of anything and then on the front this
is where things start to get really interesting power copy USB 2
SD card reader and activity LED so there's two drives inside you can
configure it in jbod raid zero or Raid
one and we are going to take this baby apart all right guys so here we are the
first thing it's just two screws it's actually less complicated than I thought
we didn't really need to cut the camera here so the first thing we find once we
take off the front nice long screws okay there we go are the flows safe vents so
these are the ventilation holes that allow air to pass in through the side
here then along this drive storage containment
unit here and then out the back the second thing we find is this stuff this
is their data cast insulation this is a very unique solution what this does is
once it reaches a temperature of around 160° f it begins to sweat water and so
you can see that's lining the entire inside there so what that means is that
as long as there is liquid water present
the temperature of this insulation cannot exceed 100° C that's how it works
seriously go look it up if there's still liquid water in the bottom of your
frying pan the frying pan cannot exceed
100° C so that allow that is what allows
it to sweat it out over a period of 30 minutes and keep the temperature of the
drives I mean 100° isn't you know happy for them but under control to the point
where they will still be able to have the data pull off of them afterwards now
that's not the end of the protection because do just because you're fireproof
doesn't mean you're waterproof so that's where this next layer comes in so we're
going to go ahead and remove this Allen key screw right here there we go and
this is where you will find aha the
hydro safe barrier so this is the one that handles 10 ft of fresh or salt
water for up to 72 hours or being hosed off with a fire hose and you can see
here now we get to some aluminum construction so this is where the drives
themselves go remember these ones will be at safe temperature so they didn't
have to build them out of steel necessarily but you can see they're
designed out of aluminum for thermal conductivity so that's the sled that the
drive mounts in and then here is where the drive will actually be able to make
contact with this shell around it with the drive enclosure itself which is what
will allow it to pass heat using the fins on the outside and be cooled by the
fan at the back so keeping your drive safe during a fire or flood is important
but you also have to keep them safe while they're actually operating it so
guys stay because we will be torture testing this drive guys leave a comment
under the video if you have some crazy creative ideas for how you think we can
torture it do not forget to like the video and don't forget to share the
video with anyone who you think might benefit from this kind of small or
medium business style Nas enclosure remember guys I did say a lot of nazes
are let down by sort of poor software or poor Hardware implementations this one
has very respectable read and write speeds and uses Synology software so
that means you can install apps and it has very Advanced Management systems and
all that good stuff sonology makes good stuff so don't forget to subscribe and
I'll see you guys next time
