SanDisk adds automated online backup to flash drives
SanDisk Corp. unveiled a Universal Serial Bus flash drive that automatically copies files to an online backup service when plugged into any PC with an Internet connection. The new Cruzer Titanium Plus flash drive is priced at $59.99 with 4GB of memory. It will be available in March, said the Milpitas, Calif.-based company. The online backup capability is priced at $29.99 per year. The first six months of the service are offered without charge, said a SanDisk spokesman. The new flash-memory product replaces SanDisk’s older Cruzer Titanium line, according to SanDisk officials. The files will be copied to Tel Aviv-based BeInSync Ltd.’s online backup service under an arrangement with SanDisk. The backup service will store up to 4GB for each product, effectively mirroring the capacity of the USB drive, said Motti Vaknin, CEO of the service provider.
