A data storage/transmission hardware device (or multiple devices physically linked together) with two (or more) access channels is disclosed. One of the access channels allows for reading and writing of information (referred to as the "active channel") while the other access channel(s) (referred to as "passive channels") allow solely for the reading of information. The actual limitation of "write" access of the passive access channels is brought about by a combination of hardware and firmware. The information stored/or transmitted through the device may be (but is not limited to) data such as digital, graphical, image, multi-media, stream or any other type of computing information. This methodology spans multiple media and computing device types. This method can be physically implemented through the use of a shared media between the dynamic and passive channel(s) or it can be implemented with separate media for each primary/passive channel with added software/firmware that relays information from the primary channel media to the passive channel media.
