Iomega, a specialist storage and data protection company and part of the EMC group, announced on 6 December 2008 the debut of the Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive.

The company said that the drive, supplied in 1TB or 500MB versions, has an on-board processor and runs a Linux-based operating system to provide networked access to data on the drive from all network connected devices, from PCs to games consoles.

The drive is supplied with EMC LifeLine Home software which allows users to configure networked PCs to automatically backup files onto the Home Media Network drive. The drive also supports streaming media to attached devices or applications running on attached devices.

The 500MB Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive will be available in early January 2009. Included in the cost is 2GB of on-line storage via EMC’s MozyHome on-line backup service.
