UnifyDrive UT2 review
Data storage is a big problem for content creators working on the go, or in the field. While you can offload memory cards or wait until you go back to base, it would be better to have the option to do it while on location.
External drives may also be seen as an obvious answer to the problem. But even then, you don’t get the benefits of redundancy in a multi-disk setup like a network-attached storage device.
