Fasetto's Link chic wearable solid state drive with up to 1 TB storage
Whether you take one look at the Fasetto Link and think it's pretty or ugly, it is sure to impress. The wearable fits around your wrist like a watch but brings with it a full 1 terbyte of portable storage.
The Link device will broadcast over Wi-Fi, rather than Bluetooth which would have been expected, and can connect cross-platform to Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS and Windows Phone devices. Apps are planned for several mobile platforms.
Solid State Transfer Speeds
The transfer speed is extremely fast because the Fasetto Link has a solid state drive inside its casing. Therefore, the reading speeds reach up to 530 Mbps and the write speed is a comfortable 470 Mbps. Basically, if you want to connect to the device and stream a 1080p or 4K video over to your PC, Mac or mobile device you'll have no problem whatsoever. Try doing that with a USB flash drive.
Fitness Features & Rain-proof
In case you would feel feel like you would be missing out on the fitness trend, the Link will also include fitness-tracking options so you can take it out on a run with you. Because the drive inside is solid state all the bouncing around as you jog around the park won't mess up the storage either. And if this wearable gets caught in a surprise rain shower, it is build to withstand being submerged in 15 meters of water so it'll get home in full working order too.
Security Treated as a Priority
Authentication is carried out via email or SMS text whenever a new device is attempting a connection to the Fasetto Link for the first time. Files that are accessed store temporarily inside the install RAM memory so they are not easily located when the Link is obtained by someone else surreptitiously.
Battery Life
The included battery can power this wearable for up to 12 hours of video streaming or stay on for 14 days while sitting in standby mode. A wireless dock will charge the device instead of needing to plug in to charge.
Storage Options
There will be the option of 128 GB for $200, 256 GB for $280, 512 GB for $449 or 1 TB for $800 storage options. No, the most mobile of storage doesn't come cheap.
Cloud Storage Alternative
For people who either don't trust the security problems inherent in using cloud storage solutions or who want their data with them at all times but don't wish to lug around a portable drive everywhere, the Fasetto Link is a good solution at a steep price.
IndieGoGo
Currently the company is running an Indiegogo campaign where anyone able to place an order now for the finished product which is projected to be ready to market by September 2015.
