Seagate Announces the Samsung Wireless Mobile Streaming Device
Published May 12, 2014

The drive can operate as a typical portable hard drive, with both a USB 3.0 port and a USB 2.0 port. You can use either one for file transfers, but the latter is also used to charge its battery or to charge the battery in another device, such as a smartphone, tablet, or digital media player. The drive will come with an AC adapter with multiple power tips to provide compatibility with worldwide markets.
The hard drive creates its own Wi-Fi hotspot, so you can stream music, movies, and photos to a wireless client. That device can be a PC, Mac, or any of the other classes of device I just mentioned, but Samsu— err—Seagate is specifically targeting the Android market with this drive. The drive will come with an Android app for playing music, movies, and slideshows. The Mobile Streaming Device can also connect with another wireless network and pass through Internet access to its own clients.
The Samsung Wireless Mobile Media Streaming Device will be available later this month for $179.
