    Are these allowed to be used on aircraft?

          I doubt that ride will ever be opened again…

          In the day and age of wifi, gps tracking and infrared technology it's a shame such rides don't have proximity safety shutdowns

    • grosse191 on 01/11/2016 - 20:43

      I think technically they are not allowed as they fall under the bracket of transmitters/receivers which are still not allowed to be used during a flight. I've been using the 1TB Wireless HDD for the past couple of years with no issues and it makes flights a lot more enjoyable. My argument though would be that a lot of flights now have onboard WiFi which probably isn't too different - however I don't know the technicalities behind it.

        So are phones, and they can be used…

        • grosse191 on 02/11/2016 - 08:05

          Good point, but once the plane doors are closed they do mention they have to be switched to flight mode.

          @grosse191:

          You can have flight mode on and wifi on together

  • jv on 01/11/2016 - 17:12

    Note:

    The iphone app for streaming to this drive will not work on older devices, requires iOS 8.0 or later…

    • nocure on 01/11/2016 - 17:14

      Have you updated yet?

      • jv on 01/11/2016 - 17:15

        It won't update past iOS 6.0

      Do you mean like use magic?

      • bigspike on 01/11/2016 - 18:00

        No. Some types of this device will let you remove the drive in it and replace it with a larger drive eg 2TB and so increase your available storage space.

        Do you know what would be magic?
        If for once you didn't have a comment that makes me cringe.

      You mean like from 2.5 to 3.5?

      • bigspike on 01/11/2016 - 23:19

        No - larger capacity drive. As in, open the enclosure, remove 500gb drive and place a 2tb in its place and close up the enclosure once more.

  • askme69 on 01/11/2016 - 19:20

    so can i put special videos on this and watch in bed with the other half without the kids accessing it?

    PS: on a Sony z3

        Prawnography

    • Sharp on 01/11/2016 - 23:00

      You can watch them online with Z3 anyway. Why store them and take risk?

    • imcold on 02/11/2016 - 11:01

      My router can do this. Have different network folders that can have different passwords. To bypass just pull the USB stick out of the router and plug the stick into a computer.

    Dropped this bad boy on concrete while transferring videos from my iPhone

    No damage at all besides a little scuff mark. Transferring completed and HDD still works perfectly. Would recommend.

  • Bargainated on 01/11/2016 - 23:23

    Blue colour out of stock, just purchased one in Ferrari Red :P

  • astarman on 02/11/2016 - 02:37

    how do i transfer from this to ipad?
    i.e to specific video apps

  • EzySatisfaction on 02/11/2016 - 06:24

    Just bought one. Cheap back up. My hard drives die every 2 to 3 years.
