UnifyDrive recently announced the UT2 and has now launched its Kickstarter campaign. This initiative has unveiled the early bird price for the portable NAS, which is available for backers at $399 who wish to secure a unit during the campaign.
Portable Backup Solution
As previously mentioned, the UT2 serves as a mobile backup solution tailored for creatives and professionals on the move. This compact NAS can accommodate up to 16 TB of NVMe storage (currently, a 4 TB Samsung 990 Pro is priced at $279.99 on Amazon) and enables users to back up SD, TF, and CFe cards with just one click.
Connectivity Features
Additionally, the UnifyDrive UT2 includes an AP Mode that provides wireless access to the backup storage. For those who prefer a wired connection, there is an Ethernet port to integrate the portable NAS into their local network. The device also supports data synchronization from cloud services.
Intelligent Data Management
Moreover, the portable NAS comes equipped with an AI-driven data manager to facilitate organization. It features an HDMI port, enabling local playback, so you can utilize it as a media device capable of supporting 8K content.
Technical Specifications
On the hardware side, the standout feature of the UnifyDrive UT2 is its Rockchip RK3558C SoC, the same processor found in single-board computers like the Orange Pi 5. This chipset is combined with 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 32 GB of eMMC storage. The device also has a built-in battery to ensure continuous data backups.
