Synology presents BeeDrive, a very complete solution to protect your files and photos

The Synology BeeDrive is a very compact, lightweight and easy-to-use external storage solution that will allow us to make backup copies of all our devices to protect our data and photos in a simple, fast and reliable way. As we can see in the image, it is so small that it fits in the palm of the hand, and it is also very light, since it barely weighs 43 grams.

At the hardware level, the Synology BeeDrive has an SSD unit with a capacity of 1 TB or 2 TB, depending on the model we choose, and can work at a speed of up to 1,050MB/s. This is very important, since it means that we can make these backup copies in a very short time.

So that there is no bottleneck in wired file transfers, the Synology BeeDrive uses the USB 3.2 Gen2 standard and runs at 10 Gbps, which translates into a bandwidth of up to 1,250 MB/s. We can also use it to make backup copies directly from our smartphones and tablets totally wireless (via Wi-Fi)and thanks to BeeDrive dedicated software Backups are very simple and intuitive.

With Synology BeeDrive we can also automate backups of all changes that occur in the folders that we have selected, and in real time, which will allow us to be better prepared against unforeseen events that, if we do not have backup copies, could have unpleasant consequences. Our files and photos will always be safe, and we will be able to recover them if any unforeseen event occurs on our PC, smartphone or tablet.

It is important that we also take into account that a device like the Synology BeeDrive offers very important advantages over cloud backups. The first is that we will have all our data and files stored locally, which means that we will not have to worry about privacy issues or possible access by third parties. Secondly, we will not have to assume any type of monthly fee, and finally, we will always have access to that data and photos, even when we do not have an Internet connection.

The Synology BeeDrive is built with a high-quality chassis that can withstand drops from a maximum height of two meters, and is now available for purchase via Synology’s official website. The price of the 1 TB version is 152.40 euros, and the 2 TB version costs 254.04 euros. It is compatible with Windows 10 and Windows 11 (macOS will also be supported soon), and the mobile app works with iOS 15 and Android 10.
