Promise launched their Apollo Cloud solution back in April of 2017, and we were lucky enough to have a unit sent over for review. I walked away from that article giving the Apollo Cloud an 89% and our Best Value award, due to its easy to use features and low entry cost.

Promise is now back with a refresh of the Apollo Cloud line, the new version dubbed Cloud 2 Duo fits perfectly as this is the first in the Apollo Cloud line to offer redundancy with two drives. With this, the enclosure has received a refresh as well, slightly wider to accommodate the second drive although maintaining that subtle curved exterior. Promise has stayed with the white exterior on the Cloud 2 Duo, adding touches of black top and bottom along with a little branding, but it's not overdone keeping the marketing machine in check.
