Look Ma, No Wires | Seagate’s new Hard Drive for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch

Posted on by

Hard drive-manufacturer Seagate today unveils a first–a wireless hard drive with a built-in personal Wifi network for iOS devices–Apple’s iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. The idea is that since the Apple devices don’t have expandable memory or slots to allow in external hard drives, heres a way to greatly extend their use. The Seagate GoFlex Satellite drive is 500 Gigabytes and sells for $199.99, at the Seagate, Amazon and Best Buy websites. It will extend to Best Buy’s retail stores in July, and be available for Android phones in the summer.
