The very cool aspect of this technology is that there's a new way to use your iPad Pro's storage - and that's really good news. Of course, a user probably should have realized in advance that their disk space may be inedequate; I'm certainly not going to buy a 128GB machine when I need 256GB. Not having enough storage means swapping data, drives, and backups when the whole situation could have been solved with some forward thinking. That said...this Samsung solution is pretty inventive.

Its not a hard drive, its a solid state drive

Sry but this has some downsides: - you need to have that device carried with you - it needs to be charged - the Wi-Fi Interface interface is occupied by that device And 100 Bucks Yeah it's not expensive but it gets way more cheaper. I prefer cloud storage, there are plenty of options out there to host your stuff in the cloud storage (nope it doesn't need to be Apple) or in your own house as well if you prefer the physical control over the storage as well. I use a combination of all the options above, I have that Apple iCloud Storage cause it comes with the account, I have a cloud storage at a data center, Dropbox and my own NAS at home. I'm not willing to drag a hard drive and it's clunky "WiFi Adapter" around to have more storage.

Would this work on a iPad Mini 4? I would like to load up photos from my camera and store them on an external hard drive. Thanks
