Hi All
I am travelling soon and I would like to take some movies with me to use on my ipad. Problem with this is that I have a 16gb Ipad3 and it can only fit 4-5 tv episodes on it at best with my study documents.
i have been researching and found a few products that can work. One that i found which is recommended is the seagate wireless plus http://www.macworld.co.uk/feature/iphone/best-ways-get-more-…
However, as it creates its own wireless network from which i can stream movies from it to the ipad, i thought that this might cause problems as WIFI isnt allowed on planes (unless i'm wrong?)
another product is the leef ibridge. however i have read that it doesn't support the file format that apple purchased movies uses, and it uses a 2.0 USB not a 3.0 USB. (not sure this matters though)
if anyone has any information or advice on what i can use, this would be greatly appreciated
The Seagate Wireless Plus is pretty good, my workplace had one. Discussions here. It's stutter free. The catch is the price… it ain't cheap @ $238 for 1TB
For $230 dollars, you could already buy a tablet or an ultrabook with expandable storage, so I don't see it as a very good investment.
The other alternative is the Ravpower File hub which has very good ratings on Amazon, but it's not sold to Australia and will need to be imported. It's basically a NAS, with card readers, USB ports and such, and is self powered using a 3000 mah lithium battery which coincidentally also ends up being a power bank.
