![]() If data privacy is a serious concern for you but you don’t wish to shell out for a more costly backup or storage plan, we’ve got an alternative solution. iDrive is currently running a 75% off deal on its 2TB plan, making it a much more affordable option for anyone to use. But this is usually reserved for more expensive business-tier cloud backup, not the average individual user. Additionally, anyone with physical access to your phone or laptop could easily get to files on the cloud, because most of these services leave you logged in by default.Ī few cloud backup companies, such as iDrive, allow the user to create their own private key, encrypting data on their local computer before uploading it to the cloud. Most cloud storage providers hold the encryption key on behalf of the user, which requires him or her to blindly trust that the company won’t abuse access to your files, lose the key to hackers, or give it to snooping government authorities. Unscrambling them requires the encryption key. The 3 Series is a recipient of the IIHS' highest-possible rating of "Good." It also earned a perfect five stars in government crash tests.Most cloud storage and cloud backup providers like Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, and Microsoft OneDrive offer some level of encryption–essentially scrambling the contents of files you’ve uploaded.

It travels 14 miles on electric mode, and EPA estimates it to drive for 71 miles on combined mode and 30 miles when using the combustion engine. The plug-in 330e iPerformance sedan mates a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder unit with a lithium-ion battery-powered electric motor to cough out a class-topping 248 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. Despite the extra muscle, the effect on fuel consumption is almost negligible. The 330i is home to a 2.0-liter turbo 4-cylinder engine worth an impressive 248 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. The engine is linked to a dedicated 8-speed automatic to deliver 31 mpg city/43 mpg* hwy/36 mpg combined with the rear-wheel drivetrain.

The same engine returns 23 mpg city/35 mpg* hwy/27 mpg* combined when paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. The xDrive version with an automatic transmission reduces one mile to the city and highway driving figures.
