SSD: Renowned the world over for its blistering speed.
Wi-Fi: Renowned the world over for being slow/laggy, bottlenecking HDD NAS systems.

What a combination

SSDs are also lighter, more shuck resistant and more efficient then a HDD, all things that are nice in a small, portable nas.

I've been looking at some of the features offered by iDrive as an online backup:

I'm not seeing anything about this new hardware. Is it not part of the online backup service.... like something completely different?

Also - is iDrive the best online backup choice for a normal every day user? I consider myself a power user on Windows... but I don't do any coding, heavy gaming, or graphics. Will it be enough for my needs?
