I remember about 5-8 years ago a product that I thought had "orange" in its name (or maybe an orange logo) that used the concept of spreading out one's documents across PC hard drives on the LAN for the purpose of backups/fault tolerance. Does anyone remember what that was called or what happened to it? Basically it would break up the file into chunks and store them on different clients, with encryption, etc. I'm not sure if it ever made it to v1.0.
