StorCenter™ ix2-200 Network Storage, Cloud Edition
Iomega Personal Cloud
Iomega

Personal Cloud is the revolutionary technology that allows
you to protect and share your data. Iomega Personal Cloud is a
patent-pending, web-based computing architecture that connects
your Iomega StorCenter™ network storage devices to other
individuals and/or devices via the Internet. Unlike public and private
cloud applications, Iomega’s Personal Cloud technology is
completely self-owned – so the content and accessibility is always
under your control.
Synchronization: Users around the globe can copy files directly
between computers as though they were on a local network.
Collaboration: Easily set up a shared workspace so that local and
remote users can view and edit documents (spreadsheets,
presentations, and word processing documents, for example) –
especially useful for helping geographically dispersed workers
collaborate.
Sharing: Sending large files can quickly choke your company's e-
mail system. And e-mailing sensitive files can raise security
concerns. Iomega Personal Cloud offers functionality that makes it
easy to securely copy and transfer large or confidential files.
Security: Iomega Personal Cloud allows you to choose who has
access to what data by invitation only. And, users can choose from
three levels of security when sending data over a public network. At
many smaller companies, locally stored files are at risk from theft,
fire, software problems, and hardware failure. Cloud storage offers
built in redundancy at every level: hard drive, server, and
datacenter.
Low Maintenance: Once the system is set up there is almost no
maintenance. You still have to manage user accounts, but jobs like
array maintenance and monitoring the health of your data storage
simply go away.
Archiving: Archiving older files to a remote StorCenter frees up
space on your primary StorCenter device for day-to-day business
needs. Less capacity required for primary storage saves you
money.
Backup: Keeping a second copy of your data in an offsite location
ensures availability in the event of an unforeseen disaster. Remote
backups can run in the background after business hours to
eliminate network bottlenecks.
Torrent Download Manager: the Iomega ix2-200 manages
peer-to-peer file transfers without the need of a dedicated PC.
Security Camera: Built in support for up to 5 UPnP (universal
plug and play) network cameras by AXIS and Panasonic to
capture and store video without the need of a dedicated PC. IP
cameras from other manufacturers can record to a Share, but are
not automatically discovered. Video is encoded as MPEG-4.
Embedded Axis Video Hosting Solution (AVHS) for local to
hosted cloud video storage and management.
Powerful Backup Functionality
Backup all the computers on your network simply by
downloading and installing the available client backup
software. Also compatible with today’s most common
backup software applications.
Time Machine® Support: allows Apple® users to
easily backup any Mac computers running OS X (10.5
or later) using Time Machine.
Personal Cloud Backup: Synchronize data between
personal cloud member systems and the ix2-200.
Public Cloud Backup: Use one of the integrated 3
rd
party cloud-based storage services such as Amazon
S3 or MozyConnect™ Beta to replicate data from your
ix2-200 to your public cloud account.
Cloud Disaster Recovery: Utilize two ix2-200 devices
in different locations and the Iomega Personal Cloud
function to create your own disaster recovery scheme.
Digital Photography Tools
Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP): No touch, automatic
transfer of photos from digital cameras via the USB
port.
Photo resize: Automatically resize photos to a
specified resolution.

choosing to photos as they are re-sized.
