    The Cloudbox by Lacie is a little weird. It’s basically a $199 100GB drive with 100GB of cloud storage on Lacie’s own service. The backups are AES encrypted on the drive itself and then sent over en masse when you update your local copy.

    It’s an interesting, if slightly odd, solution and the small size may put some folks off the solution. However, the drive is compelling enough for a SOHO user who is interested in backing up documents and a text rather than photos and video.

    It will be available in July.
