SO - With the ever increasing "megapixel race" and the net effect being that we're always in need of some good solid secure storage... dPS and ioSafe have come up with a fun little competition for you...
The Prize: I have an
ioSafe Solo 500gb external drive sitting here on my desk.
Some info on the little (not!) sucker for you...
"The rugged desktop ioSafe Solo hard drive brings disaster protection to a price range that everyone can afford. With capacities from 500GB to 1.5TB, the ioSafe Solo can safely protect precious digital family photo albums, MP3 music libraries and days of video memories. For business, the ioSafe Solo hard drive is a great way to protect customer databases or to secure regulated information including patient records (HIPAA, Sox, etc) or credit card information (PCI regulated). Businesses use the Solo hard drive as a backup and storage device, no longer worrying about data loss from moving computer tapes and files offsite. Like other ioSafe disk drives or storage systems, the Solo hard drive is for Mac or PC and uses patented technology including FloSafe air flow cooling, HydroSafe waterproof barriers and the DataCast fire safe insulation"
How to win it? This is the fun part - You have to head over to the
ioSafe website and find out the answer to the poll above (I can see the results, you can't!) and then you need to write a comment below as an answer to the following question...
"If you had to test the abilities of the
ioSafe - either its
"Fireproof" or
"Waterproof" factors - How would you do it?
e.g. I'd swing it off the side of a pirate ship... on fire!
I want weird and wacky ideas! - Keep them short, make them amusing, make them serious... Just make them! Oh and there's
(no) extra points for posting a photo or video! but it could be fun if you did!
***YOU MUST HAVE A POLL VOTE AND A COMMENT TO ENTER***
The competition is open to moderators as well - just to up the stakes! No bribes can be accepted (unless it's the new Canon 70-200 f2.8 Mk2!) My decision is final, there's no cash alternative,
competition closes 8th October 2009 at 9AM UK TIME.
