Lexar Echo SE was first announced along with the Echo ZE nano-sized USB “naildrive” back in January. Now Lexar comes up with 128GB version that is reportedly 15% shorter than other similar offerings. Lexar touts the mega-sized Echo SE 128GB as a secure backup solution for notebooks and notebooks alike. The backup is handled primarily by onboard Dmailer that includes targeted file backup so the software does continuous incremental backup to reduce wasted space and at the same time allows retrieval of previous file versions.
The files are safeguarded by 128-bit AES software encryption. Unique to the Lexar is the cross-platform compatibility. You will be able to restore or back up files on either a PC or Mac. Lexar Echo SE however won’t break any speed record, with read speed topping at 28MB/s and read at 10MB/s.
