Toshiba has introduced Canvio portable hard drive product line that features Windows-based NTI BackupNow EZ software and is upgraded with search capabilities and restore functionality to retrieve lost files.
According to Toshiba, the portable Canvio product line, available in four storage capacities, ranging from 500GB to 1TB, weighs about six ounces and comes in five colours, Raven Black, Satin Silver, Liquid Blue, Rocket Red and Komodo Green. It can automatically and regularly back up a computer while in use and offers customisation features, including backup options, advanced restore functionalities and an ability to overwrite specific original files.
In addition, the Canvio also provides an option for complete system backup that enables users to restore select files or the entire computer, even if Windows is unable to start, Toshiba said.
Toshiba said that it has reduced the physical size of this personal storage line by 25% and added environmentally-friendly packaging, delivering a 35% reduction in total volume and using 100% recyclable materials.
Manuel Camarena, product manager for consumer storage at Toshiba Storage Device Division, said: For consumers who know backup is important and want an easy path to peace of mind, the Canvio is a no-brainer. It simply acts like an insurance policy against the loss of crucial data and precious digital memories.
