Lenovo Beacon was launched in 2014 as the brand’s first personal cloud storage device. Since then the company has released a number of different models with varying functionalities. The company has now announced a new cloud storage product dubbed Lenovo Personal Cloud T2. Lenovo Personal Cloud T2

Personal cloud storage provides a physical storage unit for safe keeping at home. Lenovo Personal Cloud T2 is a NAS (Network-attached storage) device that provides a file-level storage architecture that makes stored data more accessible to a networked device.

On the core hardware, the cloud storage is powered by the Realtek RTD1296 (quad-core A53) processor with 2GB DDR4 memory, and there is 8GB eMMC 5.1 flash memory onboard. The device also comes with a Gigabit Ethernet port as well as a USB-A 3.0 port and a USB-C 3.0 port. The device further supports RAID 1 dual-disk mutual backup. RAID stands for “redundant array of independent disks,” and is a way of storing data on multiple drives. This method provides drive redundancy and ensures that if one disk fails, the second disk is available to retrieve the data to maintain data security. The device also has a built-in noise-less cooling fan.Lenovo Personal Cloud T2

The performance gateway node enables users to access the data in the device at a high speed and stability.

Lenovo Personal Cloud T2 will go on sale in China on May 10 via Jingdong. The pricing starts at 999 yuan (~$154) for the dual-position diskless version. The larger storage models come with higher pricing.
