It allows you to create your own cloud that is accessible from within your home and beyond its boundaries. This helps you organise all your files and media in one centralized location with the reliability of continuous auto backup not only on your PCs and Macs but also on your smartphones, tablets and even your cloud services. You can use the Seagate Dashboard software to set up your own backup schedule and rest easy about your network connected devices. This leads to a highly reliable network storage that takes care of connectivity along with the safety of your data. The 2-Bay model even has a secondary storage drive that creates a duplicate copy of your data, to be used in case the primary drive fails due to unforeseen reasons. Both the drives in this model are used for the continuous data backup.
Use Google Drive or Dropbox? Now you can even backup your files and exchange them between these cloud services and Seagate personal cloud. This not only frees up space on your cloud storage but also gives you local access to any file of your choice.
