About the size of a quarter, the DiskGO flash drive comes in 1GB to 16GB capacities. The most interesting thing about it is the Dmailer Backup software installed on it. It allows users to create an encrypted profile and set redundant file backups to the external hard drive. You can also archive past versions of files as they are modified for access later.

With Dmailer Backup, users can also back up files to a personal online “cloud” that can be accessed from any computer connected to the Internet using a simple, search-engine type interface. Dmailer Backup doesn’t require any installation and is Mac and PC compatible. You can pre-order today and it will ship early next week.

Edge Tech has announced a new secure USB flash drive which is both durable and encrypted. It is called the DiskGo Secure Guardian and you’ll find it pricing between around $70 and $250, depending upon memory configuration.

The DiskGo Secure Guardian from Edge Tech is available in 1, 2, 4 and 8GB configurations. It makes use of 256-bit AES hardware encryption to secure data as well as complex password protocols and a function which actually erases the drive’s data after eight failed password attempts.
