Stardom has announced the Safe Capsule, a two drive, RAID 1, protected storage solution for use with Apple’s Time Capsule. It’s a hard drive product that allows you the ability to add more network storage (up to 2TB), for safely storing your photo, music or data files with Stardom’s RAID 1 protected mirroring technology.
You can remove, replace or upgrade drives thanks to the Safe Capsule’s modular design. The Safe Capsule features an auto-rebuild feature, with a LED rebuild status display. In the event that a hard drive fails, data can easily be rebuilt. The Safe Capsule can also be configured for two drives running independently with storage of up to 4TB.
The Safe Capsule conforms in size to the Time Capsule unit. You can stack the Time Capsule onto the Safe Capsule and connect via the USB port and your safe network storage is ready to go. The Safe Capsule is also sharable by multiple users thanks to Time Capsule’s networking capability. The Safe Capsule is sharable through Ethernet and your wireless networks acting as a centralized storage station.
The Safe Capsule features a three port USB 2.0 hub, for various shared devices such as printers, flash drives and other USB peripherals. It can purportedly reach speeds of 480Mbps when directly attached to the computer system. The Safe Capsule keeps the two drives inside running cool with an integrated 6cm ball-bearing fan. An internal power supply keeps your workspace clutter-free without the need for an external power brick or AC adapter.
The Safe Capsule is scheduled to start shipping during the winter of 2009 and will be available through a network of resellers around the world.
