Synology America Corp. is excited to preview the next DiskStation Manager operating system, DSM 5.0, at the 2014 International CES. The preview will give users a first-hand look at DSM's streamlined new interface. It will also provide an opportunity to demo several new and enhanced features, in what is sure to be the most significant update to the DiskStation Manager in years.
QuickConnect is now front-and-center to the installation process, and easier than ever to configure. Create – or import – a QuickConnect ID, and password. As soon as a volume is created, it can be accessed remotely via browser or across all iOS, Android, and Windows Phone apps; anywhere a data connection exists. No complicated router configuration is required.
Synology's Cloud Station is real-time, private cloud storage, and cross-device synchronization, without recurring fees. In DSM 4.3 Cloud Station brought the ability to sync specific files, file-types, and folders. DSM 5.0 beta stretches Cloud Station's functionality even further by allowing users to sync between multiple Disk and RackStations. Now it's possible to keep data at work and at home current with one Cloud Station account.
ioSafe aims to expand its product line to secure and protect up to 90 TB of data per system with the new ioSafe NAS 1513+, a disaster proof network attached storage (NAS) appliance powered by Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM). Aimed at business and pro-sumer markets, the ioSafe 1513+ can store and protect massive data volumes and serve the data privately while bypassing expensive, vulnerable and slow public cloud options - like an aircraft black box for network data.
The ioSafe 1513+ provides hardened data storage through a 5-bay main chassis combined with two optional 5-bay expansion modules for up to 15 drive bays per system. Designed to provide all the benefits of the private cloud with fast local transfer speeds, the new NAS can be configured to have none of the security risks and privacy issues associated the public cloud yet still protect data from natural disasters like fires and floods. Massive video, audio or data libraries can be secured locally and instantly be made available to remote workforce or clients as required. All security systems and access are 100% controlled by the end user without any third party cloud providers.
The high performance ioSafe 1513+ will be equipped with a 2.13GHz Dual Core Intel Atom CPU and 2GB of memory, expandable up to 4GB. The ioSafe 1513+ utilizes ioSafe's patented DataCast, HydroSafe and FloSafe technologies to protect data from loss in fire up to 1550°F and submersion in fresh or salt water up to a 10 foot depth for 3 days.

Today, LaCie announced the Culbuto, a quirky USB key brought to life by French designer Constance Guisset. When not connected to a computer, the LaCie Culbuto whimsically bobs side to side as it is poked – much like a roly–poly toy. In fact, the name Culbuto is French for a toy with a weighted base that keeps the object vertical even after it is knocked down.
"The search for movement and balance is essential in my work," said Constance Guisset, product designer. "Repeated and infinite oscillation fascinates me. For my first project with LaCie, I proposed a slightly roly–poly key that eventually became LaCie Xtremkey. When LaCie asked me to develop this idea, Culbuto was the result. It’s an irresistibly fun USB key."
The LaCie Culbuto is a storage device disguised as a decorative object. It has a spherical solid metal base topped with a silicone rubber stem that ends with a USB 3.0 connector. On its top, a cap that closes off the LaCie Culbuto features a slit to hold a photo or business card. Design–conscious consumers will appreciate both the speed benefits of USB 3.0 and the key's additional purpose as a whimsical picture holder when not in use.
