At this year's NAB Show, International Supplies, one of the leading worldwide distributors for both the photographic and film/video industry, will be giving a sneak peak at the latest addition to NEXTO DI's line of portable storage devices, which will become available later this spring. It is called Video Storage Pro, Model NVS2500.


Like its predecessors, Video Storage Pro is a reliable, easy to use and extremely fast backup solution for when you are in the field or on location. It can back-up hundreds of hours of raw footage from hard drive camcorders, including high definition, via USB or memory card so you do not need your laptop. You can back-up OTG (On-The-Go) wherever you are. But, what makes VS Pro stand out from all the rest is that it is the first licensed storage device to backup directly from a Sony SxS memory card. Users simply insert their SxS card into its designated slot in the hard drive and backup their footage. The device also works with all standard memory cards.

"When the marketing director at NEXTO DI told us about this new model they wanted us to launch in the U.S., we were all very excited because aside from what Sony makes for its products, there's nothing else on the market that can backup directly from a Sony SxS card," says Doug Pircher, the general manager at International Supplies. "The VS Pro also has so many new features that really addresses the needs of our customers. They want speed, convenience, reliability, efficiency and peace of mind, and the VS Pro offers all that and more."

The VS Pro allows users to preview their video footage via its 2.4" Color LCD screen. It also features a multiple backup function so when you insert a memory card into the device, you can backup simultaneously to the built-in hard drive and to an external hard drive, which can be connected to the VS Pro using a USB cable.

Another revolutionary feature is its internal free fall sensor so in the event that you accidentally drop the device, it will automatically lock the data on the hard drive the second you drop it so you will not lose any footage. It also has internal shock absorbers to further ensure that your information will be safe. The device checks the integrity of your footage bit by bit to ensure 100% backup success. It will verify when backup is complete and if something is wrong with the video or file, you would know immediately. It will notify you if the memory card is corrupt or if the hard drive is faulty.

In addition, NEXTO's VS Pro uses patented technology, called X-Copy, to give users the fastest backup speed possible from an SxS card, and all other standard memory cards. It also features an eSATA, USB 2.0 and FireWire interface to further increase the data transfer speed to and from the computer, which is ideal when downloading hours of raw footage.

The VS Pro can store all types of files from video footage to photos, data, music, movies and games, so it can easily serve as an external hard drive for backup at home or work. It is compatible with PC, MAC and UNIX. It is also so compact and lightweight, it fits in the palm of your hand so you can conveniently take your raw footage with you wherever you go.

The NEXTO Video Storage Pro is available in 160 GB, 250 GB, 320 GB or 500 GB, so you get to choose the capacity that best fits your specific storage needs. It is also forward compatible to 2TB (terabytes) if desired. The device comes with a one year warranty, a shock protection rubber jacket, USB cable, eSATA cable, FireWire cable, an extra AA battery holder, a car charger, and an AC adaptor. Auxiliary batteries are sold separately. Prices are still TBA.
