It offers a full-PC backup on a device about as massive as an iPod and ensures security thanks to removable media. Backing up is kind of boring but deathly necessary.

The FBI op, named Cisco Raider, was a two-year-old operation that targeted illegal distributors of fake network hardware, mostly manufactured in China.

The U.S. Military has spent millions of dollars on counterfeit personal components over the years, according to an FBI report. This not only screws over businesses, but it also makes it easier for cyber-terrorists to hack into our systems by putting trojans and viruses in fake circuitry. An anti-counterfeit initiative by the FBI, led to 15 criminal cases and over $3.5 million worth of seized products.
