Jesuit - 'gadget ' 121 - ioSafe Solo - Indestructible Storage!

http://www.thetechstop.net/?page_id=3250

Most storage solutions build their disaster plans around AVOIDING disasters... but we know that it's often not possible or practical to plan for every possible contingency. That's why the smart guys at ioSafe have created the "Solo" -- a storage solution that doesn't need to avoid disasters... because it can survive them!

Father, what is your view on Marijuana?

[gadgettts]

knightelf190,

My view is this... I don't smoke Marijuana... In fact, I avoid pretty much anything that affects my judgment. (i.e. alcohol, tobacco, drugs, an XL deep-dish meat-lover's pizza, etc.) However, I have friends who use MJ responsibly and I don't feel the need to judge or condemn them.

As with most things, it's when it's used to the detriment of the individual and others that it becomes a problem.

So let's say the drive fails after like 4 years.How do I replace the bag that the drive is in because once opened the bag is not air-tight anymore or maybe I want to swap the drive with an SSD how do you replace the bag because I don't think you can buy the bags.

gammat1,

You're right... after three years the drive isn't covered, so if it fails you'd be better off getting a new one.

If you really wanted to replace the drive you could, after all... it's just a SATA hard drive... but getting a resealable bag that is water and airtight is probably going to be a problem.

Peace,

My and my family owe you. The great Turkey fire of 2010 (and the water) destroyed almost everything in the office, but we most freaked about the data we thought we lost. I was using your recomendation of NVX and the Solo. Open the solo case and the drive booted right up. YOU'RE A LIFESAVER!!!!!!!!!!!
