  Is there international warranty for seagate?

  Good deal! I'm tossing between this or the Kingston wi-drive as it can simultaneously share to 2 additional users. I need to decide if I need a bigger storage or multiple streaming ><

    Have the goflex myself and u can definitely have multiple streaming. Works like a media server with built in wifi.

    Said "Stream 3 different movies over Wi-Fi simultaneously to 3 iPads" on the amazon website

  pretty bad deal IMO, you can usually get 1TB ones for around 90$ from amazon.

    Tadashi on 11/12/2012 - 00:43

    You sure u got the right one? This has a built in wifi and battery so acts like a portable media server.

      Oh crap, should have read the whole thing properly. My bad, it thought it was just a 500gig portable hard drive!

  BR on 10/12/2012 - 23:31

  Link to 1tb version please lol.

  Bought one of these 3 months ago for 190 from office works. Havnt used it yet. But im tempted to get this

  safetest99 on 11/12/2012 - 01:07

  got 1 from OW during table sales for 108 but they only had 1 demo! unit. but with this price they may now deal

• 

  safetest99 on 11/12/2012 - 02:45

  correction $109 but that was in Nov. unit works well after Fw update which allowed passthru to internet. (only caution is that it does not transcode!)

    the discombobulated… on 11/12/2012 - 15:56

    Sorry. Does not transcode?

  • 

    Tadashi on 11/12/2012 - 23:38

    i would suggestif your using an ipad. pair it with ace player and let the app transcode. you loose the passthru net thou.

  flyingtrapeze on 13/12/2012 - 10:54

  great price. cheaper to get a second one than to upgrade my existing to 1TB.

  • 

    the discombobulated… on 13/12/2012 - 11:01

    You already have one? How is it working out for you? What's good and bad with it, if you don't mind? Can you use your own mobile media player wrt the stuff you have stored on it? Can you store generic stuff?

    • 

      flyingtrapeze on 13/12/2012 - 11:14

      tv shows. no problem. download using included usb3.0 <-> sata cable from PC. drag and drop files into the drive just like any usb device. charging is easy. no issue. pdf, cbz, everything you throw at the ipad, if the ipad has an app can handle it, it is ok to store on this drive.
      when I started, I was streaming while on the bus. this goes on for a while until I worked out, I could just download the show onto the ipad and then turn off the goflex.
      the native goflex app does not decode shows for you. use aceplayer. likewise, if you store loads and loads of comics on the goflex, use comiczeal to read them. is a great little storage device. very handy. I am very tempted to get a second one.
      feel free to ask more specific questions. I wrote a review for Amazon too.

        I'm tempted by it also. It certainly looks nifty. :)

        Have you tried the internets passthrough?

        How good is their mobile app for going through heaps of files/media? I take it it doesn't just network mount the drive on the phone (which would be just too awesome :).

        goes to hunt down your Amazon review if possible

        the internet passthru does work. my usage pattern has been to use the goflex to hold the bulky files I want. once I am done with them I switch off the goflex to save battery. I then use my $50 LG optimus (ozbargaain from flybuy), and $20 amaysim datapack (ozbargain also) and tether the ipad to the internet. so different SSID. one for goflex, one for mobile internet (same ssid for my home wireless).
