Mirra has announced a free data guarantee for its Mirra Personal Server users. The MirraGuard Data Protection Guarantee provides against data loss from a hard disk crash on the user's PCs. If a hard disk crashes, Mirra's recovery tools let users migrate the data from the Mirra Personal Server onto a new hard disk. If they need help, Mirra provides free tech support. If that fails, the company will pay to have the device shipped to Mirra, where it will extract the data, burn it onto a CD or DVD and ship it back. If this process fails, Mirra will pay up to $1,000 for a recovery service. MirraGuard is a three-year guarantee available to users of Mirra's Version 2.0 product. Personal Server comes in 80-, 120- and 250G-byte versions priced from from $349 to $749.
