ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Oct. 30, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Memeo Inc., a worldwide provider of digital life and information management solutions for the consumer today announced a partnership agreement with D-Link to enhance the way home and business users protect, manage and access digital content. Under the agreement, Memeo's high performance flagship backup software, Memeo AutoBackup 2.0, will be bundled with D-Link's robust 2-Bay Network Storage Enclosure (DNS-323).
"As the need for storage increases in both home and business environments, so does the need for a comprehensive solution that combines data management with data protection and the ability to share and stream content throughout the home or office," stated Hong Bui, CEO of Memeo. "We are pleased to be working with D-Link, an industry leader in the networking and storage space, to combine our collective expertise in backup, storage and networking to develop a powerful, yet easy-to-use solution that unites simplified data backup with the next-generation of storage performance and protection."
"Backup has to be simple for the home network environment, and Memeo has lead the way in providing backup solutions that are not only very simple to use, but also full of features that complement our goal of providing powerful and flexible data management," said Brian Larsen, associate vice president of product development for D-Link. "Our new storage enclosure is designed to address the growing need to protect the increasing amounts of digital content being stored and shared in the home and office. Memeo augments the vast benefits that the DNS-323 already has to offer, allowing us to work together to enhance the digital user experience."
D-Link's new 2-Bay Network Storage Enclosure incorporates a full suite of pioneering features such as a fast 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet connection, two internal SATA hard drives, a built-in FTP server for accessing files through the Internet, a built-in UPnP audio visual (UPnP AV) media server for streaming digital content, and RAID 1 technology for enhanced data protection reliability and mirroring important files. When used with the internal SATA drives, the DNS-323 enables users to share documents, files, and digital content such as music, photos and video throughout the home or office network.
Memeo's latest version of AutoBackup now can back up to 500,000 files and includes a more robust feature-set such as a new intuitive Smart Picks(tm) set-up wizard for simple protection of commonly used files. It also includes the new OneClick Restore(tm) - a stand-alone application that provides a trouble-free way to locate and restore important files with just a couple clicks of the mouse. The redesigned User Interface shows the status of all continuous backup jobs so customers will always know their data is completely protected. Unique to AutoBackup 2.0 is its ability to create multiple concurrent backup plans ranging from encrypted backup of your private information to photo sharing to a wide range of destinations." For additional security, Memeo now includes the ability to create password-encrypted backup plans, which allow you to specify a password to protect backup files.
D-Link's new 2-Bay Network Storage Enclosure (DNS-323) with Memeo AutoBackup is available immediately for $229.99 via D-Link's wide network of retail stores, online retailers, value added resellers and online store, www.dlinkshop.com.
