Razer has announced a cloud-based storage system which will save all of your Razer peripheral settings online, allowing you to access them from anywhere you have an Internet connection. This system will be known as Synapse 2.0. For those of you wondering about Synapse 1.0, that was invented back in 2006 and is Razer’s on-board memory solution for saving peripheral settings. The system will also automatically updated Razer firmware and drivers so that gamers don’t have to worry about remembering to check for updates.
“Razer Synapse 2.0 is a testament to our drive to continually innovate for the benefit of the gamer and end-user,” said Robert “RazerGuy” Krakoff, President, Razer USA. “Razer Synapse 2.0 gives gamers a convenient, single cloud-based platform to access, maintain, and store settings for all of their Razer devices. On-board memory, with its limited storage for user profiles, becomes obsolete when Razer Synapse 2.0 offers essentially unlimited space for all of your hardware settings.”
