Seagate debuts GoFlex Satellite

Seagate has announced GoFlex Satellite mobile wireless storage, the battery-powered external hard drive to wirelessly extend the storage capacity of any Wi-Fi enabled mobile device and comes with 500GB and Wi-Fi access over 802.11 b/ g/n and a rechargeable battery. Devices are wirelessly connected directly to the GoFlex Satellite drive by use of the free GoFlex Media app available now on iTunes, the Apple App Store and Android Market or a web browser.

"With the growth of the tablet and iPad markets and the larger volumes of high-quality media now being consumed, there is a clear need for access to content that is not plagued with the challenges of streamed video over the Internet. The unfortunate fact is that these popular new mobile devices are hampered by their limited storage capacity while one of their primary functions is that of media consumption. With the GoFlex Satellite mobile wireless storage, we wished to create an elegant solution that provides real value to the multitude of tablet users out there by delivering a seamless connection to local storage. No longer will a consumer feel as though it is a compromise to purchase a lower capacity tablet or iPad. With GoFlex Satellite, people will be able to carry their entire media library with them without the need for wires or the web at a fraction of the cost of adding 3G or purchasing or a higher capacity tablet," said Rajesh Khurana, Country Manager India and SAARC, Seagate Technology.

To help with extending battery life, the free GoFlex Media App provides a progressive download feature, which temporarily loads the video on to the Android device it is being streamed to, allowing the drive to go into stand-by mode. Moreover, rather than rely on a buffered stream from a distant provider, GoFlex Satellite mobile storage wirelessly serves up media content as a local attached storage for up to three devices at the same time.
