Cooliris, a trademark of Cooliris, Inc., and Hitachi Global Storage Technologies are working together to redefine the personal storage user experience with the launch of Hitachi's new LifeStudio external hard drive family.

Hitachi teamed with Cooliris to provide an external storage solution that seamlessly protects and pulls digital memories together with online social content and entertainment into one 3D Wall powered by Cooliris.

LifeStudio customers can also enjoy access to content from more than one-hundred Cooliris premium content partners, including The New York Times, CBS and Hulu.com. Using Cooliris' innovative 3D Wall technology as the foundation of the LifeStudio user interface, Hitachi added additional features and functionality, such as automatic organization of content, integration of online and cloud backup in one solution, and the ability to pull in content from disparate sources, taking the hard drive to new levels.

How It Works
After a quick install of the LifeStudio software, the drive's technology instantly kicks in. User content – photos, videos, music, and documents stored on the computer, any connected USB storage device, or online sites such as Facebook, Flickr and Picasa Web Albums – instantly and automatically begins to appear in chronological order on the 3D Wall powered by Cooliris.

Like no other external drive, the Hitachi LifeStudio drive also lets customers view and interact with photos from these top online sites all from within the 3D Wall. With content displayed and automatically organized in one location, it's easier to find, access and share.

"We are thrilled to add Hitachi to our growing list of technology partners with the launch of the new LifeStudio family, and play a game-changing role in the external storage space," said Soujanya Bhumkar, co-founder and CEO, Cooliris. "Consumers can easily back-up their growing collections of digital content and also intuitively organize, search and share, using Cooliris and the additional power and functionality of the LifeStudio family of external drives."

"Hitachi GST continues to seek out innovative technology companies to help deliver the most unique products and experiences to market," said Mike Williams, general manager and vice president, Hitachi GST Branded Business. "Cooliris has been a great company to work with. Together, we've created an integrated, seamless and very unique experience for consumers – no other external hard drive can or will provide a software experience like the LifeStudio family of external drives, powered by Cooliris."
