The Zettabyte zBox isn’t just a networked storage device. Every piece of information you put on the drive gets sent to Amazon’s S3 storage cloud. This way if there were ever a flood, hurricane, or any other natural or unnatural disaster, you can rest easy knowing all your media is safe at the Amazon batcave. For this ease of mind you pay about a buck per gigabyte, monthly, for as long as you want to keep your data safe. It costs $50 for 30GB, and plans go all the way up to $300 for 690GB. The device itself is powered by a 266MHz PowerPC processor, and has 128MB of RAM. This is probably one of the best backup devices you can get, yet I still wonder how killer my bandwidth bill would be.
