If you thought your external hard drive was cutting-edge, prepare to have your mind blown. The UnifyDrive UT2 is here to make sure you’re never left scrambling for storage space—whether you’re snapping photos in the Sahara or editing videos in your local café. This portable NAS (Network Attached Storage) isn’t just a fancy acronym; it’s a game-changer for creatives, pros, and data hoarders who need their files at arm’s length.
Imagine carrying around a pocket-sized powerhouse that can store up to 16TB of SSD data, thanks to its dual SSD setup. It’s like having a mini data center that’s faster than your Wi-Fi on a good day. And speaking of Wi-Fi, it’s got Wi-Fi 6 support, along with a 2.5GbE Ethernet port, ensuring your files are transferred faster than you can say “upload.”
The UnifyDrive UT2 doesn’t stop at storage. It’s packing AI smarts to organize your photos and files, all while keeping them private—no nosy clouds here. For photographers and videographers, the one-click backup from your SD, TF, or CFe cards is a dream come true. And when you need a break from work, it even doubles as a media server and Blu-ray player, with support for 4K and 8K playback.
Essentially, the UT2 is the Swiss Army knife of portable storage, making traditional external drives look like relics. You can learn more about this new portable NAS on Kickstarter where you can secure a unit for as low as US$399. The campaign is, not surprisingly, fully funded and so, the product is a go. All that is left is for UnifyDrive to fulfill its order in November 2024.
