Samsung today announced HomeSync, a home cloud for storing, sharing and streaming content across multiple devices including the big screen. The set top box packs a 1 TB hard drive, 1.7 GHz dual-core processor and runs on Android (Jelly Bean). It supports up to eight separate accounts to cover a whole family, and allows each user to upload and download content from multiple devices and instantly share with other family members. Additionally, files are encrypted and password protected. With the media streaming device, users will have full access to Google Play apps. HomeSync will be available from April 2013 in select countries and continue to expand globally. We are still awaiting pricing details.
