ClickFree C2N Back-up Drive

For all of us who dread the idea of backing our files up, the Clickfree drive literally does all the heavy lifting. All you have to do is attach it to your PC or laptop, and then let the drive run its own tool program set. There are some options you can set, but basically, whatever it can stuff into its memory from your laptop, it will. Even better, it works like the old Windows network programs. The Clickfree drive will also come in handy if you're backing files up for transfer from a Windows XP platform to the new Windows 7 OS. Remember, XP does not have a smooth way of transferring your desktop to the "7," so a backup drive is the best solution to survive the transition.



All you have to do is plug the Clickfree drive into all the computers in your network, and then you'll be able to back up the whole network from one PC. It has some of the best USB 2.0 speeds in town, so you can back everything up in a minimum amount of time. The only bad thing you can say about it is that you had better hope an angry ex won't be able to get it from you. Also, it has no Firewire option. Prices start around $98. There are already terabyte flavors with USB 3.0 capacity, just in case you're wondering.
