Reviews 23 Jan, 2013 Dave Mitchell

Viridian PC Systems OfficeStor Express review

Reviews 15 Jan, 2013 Dave Mitchell

Viridian’s goal is to offer the ‘finest range of home and small business servers in the world’. We test its OfficeStor Express and find out if the competition should be worried.

The new ReadyDATA storage appliances move Netgear into the enterprise storage space. Data protection features and 10GbE performance are very good but our lab tests show its deduplication delivers modest storage savings.

IoSafe’s Solo is the toughest hard disk we’ve ever seen, but is a 1TB fireproof unit worth £150?

TappIn P2P file sharing review

Reviews 15 May, 2012 Karl Wright

A P2P file sharing tool, which has an attractive £13 per year price point and comes with SSL encryption and password protection. However, the lack of online backup and need for high-speed internet lets it down.
