It works by sending your data over a shared internet connection in AES-256 encryption. You can remotely edit files on the connected drives, and the transfer speed is apparently only limited by your up speed. It’s billed as being a more secure alternative to cloud storage and remote access software, and more convenient than just ferrying all your files on flash drives. It’s $US100 and available now.
