00:00:05.680 --> 00:00:11.320
want a portable power bank Wireless AP SD card and USB reader for your mobile

00:00:09.719 --> 00:00:16.000
devices check the link in the video description to learn more about the ad

00:00:12.920 --> 00:00:19.080
data DH Drive air ae400 now while I love

00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:21.240
data security as much as the next guy in

00:00:19.080 --> 00:00:26.640
terms of keeping my precious memories safe it is still pretty hard to get

00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:32.559
excited about a Nas because the cold hard truth is they all do basically the

00:00:30.119 --> 00:00:37.280
same thing they keep your data store data safe by replicating it across

00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:40.879
multiple drives they allow you to centralize your storage in one place

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:45.399
they allow you to build a sort of personal cloud so that you can access

00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:50.160
your data on the Go and all of these are good things but the cold hard truth is a

00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:54.840
lot of them are either let down by subpar Hardware they're let down by

00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:58.480
subpar software or they're let down by just not being interesting or not having

00:00:56.680 --> 00:01:02.640
anything different about them enter the io safe n 2 totally different first of

00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:05.920
all it starts with packaging check this out that is some of the thickest closed

00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:09.920
cell foam that I've ever seen packed around a NZ and there is a very good

00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:15.960
reason for that that very good reason is that this thing weighs a frakin ton it

00:01:13.080 --> 00:01:22.640
weighs about as much sort of like cubic cm for cubic cimer as a

00:01:20.119 --> 00:01:29.320
UPS oh and there's a very good reason for that too this NZ is fireproof and

00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:33.119
waterproof it can handle up to, 1500° F

00:01:29.320 --> 00:01:34.960
or around 8 140° C for 30 minutes at

00:01:33.119 --> 00:01:38.840
lower temperatures it can go for longer and to put that in perspective most

00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:42.280
house fires won't go for longer than 30 minutes before a fire department shows

00:01:40.479 --> 00:01:46.280
up and puts it out and that's where the waterproofness comes in so not only is

00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:53.280
it flood resistant because it can handle 10 ft of fresh or salt water for up to

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:55.240
72 hours but it can handle having the

00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:59.079
fire outside of it where it'll be basically red hot by the time the fire

00:01:57.640 --> 00:02:04.360
department reaches it and it can handle being hosed down at that point in time

00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:10.200
all of this without causing data to be lost on the drives inside you guys you

00:02:08.119 --> 00:02:13.480
guys getting crazy with me here yet all right so it's available in a couple of

00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:16.280
configurations diskless or with diss installed this right here is the

00:02:14.920 --> 00:02:21.800
diskless one but the thing about the installed disc one is that um iosafe

00:02:19.959 --> 00:02:26.160
doesn't expect you to actually continue to use the nas after it's been on fire

00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:29.560
and after it's been doused down with water they expect you to send it to them

00:02:27.640 --> 00:02:36.400
for data recovery they cover shipping both ways which is very very cool and

00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:38.120
they even send you back your new N2 so

00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:41.680
if it goes on fire or whatever else they send you a new one they send you new

00:02:39.760 --> 00:02:46.080
drives inside so your data is completely safe I don't believe there's any deductible on the first one but don't

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:51.480
necessarily quote me on that check the link in the description if you want more details so the in let's go accessories

00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:55.800
first I guess so there's a power adapter right there all right power cord got

00:02:53.560 --> 00:03:01.760
some screws for installing drives got an Ethernet cable got a small magnet as

00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:04.000
well as an iosafe disc and this removal

00:03:01.760 --> 00:03:09.319
tool so it has a very unique construction first of all the entire

00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:11.640
outside of it is made of steel so

00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:16.120
there's no aluminum screws even because aluminum or plastic or any other

00:03:13.799 --> 00:03:20.920
materials are going to have serious problems at 1500° F so it's all made of

00:03:18.720 --> 00:03:25.360
steel around the backside you can see there is still a ventilation fan and the

00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:31.280
way that that works is they actually have vent holes in the front that are

00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:36.760
built with kind of a m like structure so that in a fire the Flames themselves

00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:37.879
can't get through to reach the drives

00:03:36.760 --> 00:03:41.439
and they have to go through the insulation which is uh has a very unique

00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:46.799
design as well so it still is allowed to have active cooling it's got a power in

00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:52.120
at the back gigabit Ethernet two USB 3.0 ports and a security Kensington lock on

00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:57.040
the other side we find not a whole lot of anything and then on the front this

00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:02.560
is where things start to get really interesting power copy USB 2

00:04:00.239 --> 00:04:07.280
SD card reader and activity LED so there's two drives inside you can

00:04:04.239 --> 00:04:09.599
configure it in jbod raid zero or Raid

00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:13.879
one and we are going to take this baby apart all right guys so here we are the

00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:17.040
first thing it's just two screws it's actually less complicated than I thought

00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:21.359
we didn't really need to cut the camera here so the first thing we find once we

00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:26.479
take off the front nice long screws okay there we go are the flows safe vents so

00:04:24.479 --> 00:04:31.639
these are the ventilation holes that allow air to pass in through the side

00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:38.400
here then along this drive storage containment

00:04:35.880 --> 00:04:42.520
unit here and then out the back the second thing we find is this stuff this

00:04:40.440 --> 00:04:46.680
is their data cast insulation this is a very unique solution what this does is

00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:53.160
once it reaches a temperature of around 160° f it begins to sweat water and so

00:04:51.520 --> 00:04:58.560
you can see that's lining the entire inside there so what that means is that

00:04:55.479 --> 00:05:00.880
as long as there is liquid water present

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:05.639
the temperature of this insulation cannot exceed 100° C that's how it works

00:05:03.960 --> 00:05:10.600
seriously go look it up if there's still liquid water in the bottom of your

00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:14.039
frying pan the frying pan cannot exceed

00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:16.720
100° C so that allow that is what allows

00:05:14.039 --> 00:05:20.440
it to sweat it out over a period of 30 minutes and keep the temperature of the

00:05:18.280 --> 00:05:25.880
drives I mean 100° isn't you know happy for them but under control to the point

00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:29.400
where they will still be able to have the data pull off of them afterwards now

00:05:28.039 --> 00:05:32.600
that's not the end of the protection because do just because you're fireproof

00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:36.919
doesn't mean you're waterproof so that's where this next layer comes in so we're

00:05:34.840 --> 00:05:44.120
going to go ahead and remove this Allen key screw right here there we go and

00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:46.120
this is where you will find aha the

00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:50.880
hydro safe barrier so this is the one that handles 10 ft of fresh or salt

00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:54.960
water for up to 72 hours or being hosed off with a fire hose and you can see

00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:58.440
here now we get to some aluminum construction so this is where the drives

00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:01.919
themselves go remember these ones will be at safe temperature so they didn't

00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:05.720
have to build them out of steel necessarily but you can see they're

00:06:03.400 --> 00:06:10.039
designed out of aluminum for thermal conductivity so that's the sled that the

00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:14.479
drive mounts in and then here is where the drive will actually be able to make

00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:18.639
contact with this shell around it with the drive enclosure itself which is what

00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:23.680
will allow it to pass heat using the fins on the outside and be cooled by the

00:06:21.400 --> 00:06:27.120
fan at the back so keeping your drive safe during a fire or flood is important

00:06:25.599 --> 00:06:31.080
but you also have to keep them safe while they're actually operating it so

00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:35.479
guys stay because we will be torture testing this drive guys leave a comment

00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:39.960
under the video if you have some crazy creative ideas for how you think we can

00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:42.840
torture it do not forget to like the video and don't forget to share the

00:06:41.400 --> 00:06:47.639
video with anyone who you think might benefit from this kind of small or

00:06:44.880 --> 00:06:52.440
medium business style Nas enclosure remember guys I did say a lot of nazes

00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:55.720
are let down by sort of poor software or poor Hardware implementations this one

00:06:54.120 --> 00:07:00.280
has very respectable read and write speeds and uses Synology software so

00:06:58.599 --> 00:07:04.000
that means you can install apps and it has very Advanced Management systems and

00:07:02.039 --> 00:07:09.690
all that good stuff sonology makes good stuff so don't forget to subscribe and

00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:28.959
I'll see you guys next time

00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:34.680
