The Mirra arrives. The Mirra Personal Server is finally out. Basically, a hard drive that connects to your home network, the Mirra can be set to automatically backup and synchronize files from all the computers in the house so that if there's a crash, you'll always have your data. It can also be accessed remotely over the Internet if you ever need to get some file while on the road or want to share MP3s or digital photos with friends. We've been playing around with one for the past week or so, and it works as advertised (well, except that the first one they sent was defective). It's been automatically backing up our documents folder, and we were able to upload our MP3 collection and then access it from a web browser. Om Malik has some more details about the Mirra on his blog. [Gizmodo]
