What we think: Good value for money, and its RAID functionality makes it slightly more secure than its rivals
What you need to know

Tags: buffalo, storage, disks, backups
We like:
RAID capability; auto backups
We don't like:
Looks; more expensive than ordinary USB hard disks; no media streaming
You might also need:
A computer with an Internet connection
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The DriveStation Duo offers a clever twist on the humble USB hard disk. Its twin hard drives will give you peace of mind if you're paranoid about disk failure, so all you have to tolerate is its atrocious looks
