If you want a real world test for it, drop it down a flight of concrete stairs or off a loading dock.

Or give it to Machinima, like we did.....

Products I would use for a scenario like this include and ARE limited to:

• Synology and/or IOSafe two bay NAS enclosure (paging @Brett-at-ioSafe )
• Netgear ReadyNAS two bay NAS enclosure

Both RAID 1, both business class, both flexible, powerful and cheap. Literally nothing else I would look at or consider.

Thanks, Scott!

@DustinB3403: I'm not sure that our solutions - which are fireproof/waterproof hard drives and NAS - would be the best option in this scenario but, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

@dafyre One of the weirder tests of our products, that's for sure!

"Using a password manager is one of the biggest ways that average computer users can keep their online accounts secure, but their protection is pretty much meaningless when an end user's computer is compromised. Underscoring this often ignored truism is a recently released hacking tool that silently decrypts all user names, passwords, and notes stored by the KeePass password manager and writes them to a file."

Of course once an attacker is in your system, they will have access to all your stuff.

Indeed. The moral of this story is simply that all bets are off if your systems are compromised.

Our backup/DR solutions cook the bacon and the eggs - literally! http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2010/08/you-can-fry-an-egg-on-the-iosafe-solo/

It really depends on your requirements and how much data you have.

Couple hundred GB, max.

The 415+ was mentioned earlier.

In that case, the 214 would likely be the way to go: https://iosafe.com/products-2baynas-overview

@scottalanmiller As far as I know, you did!

We're back! Sorry about any inconvenience!

Uh-oh! I'll find out what's up (down?).

@bigbear All our NAS are similar to Synology as they all run Synology's operating system What capacity to do you need? The 216 provides up to 16TB of raw capacity while the 1515+ provides up to 120TB (when used in conjunction with expansion chassis)..

@bigbear A diskless 2-bay costs $659.99. You can find pricing on our website.

I'm willing to accept the blame for most things - I'm married; it's the easiest way - but have to draw the line at that!

I have a nerd boner that can be seen from space.

In that case, I'm going to avoid looking at any photos taken from the ISS for the time being.

It'd be a real shame if someone built a little wooden house for it

You mean, like Trevor Pott's REID.....
