    • I relate it to watching a streaming video over a slow internet connection.
    • It was only clicking, the green light was blinking, and no white light on the plug that indicated the clear connection, the laptop could not recognize the drive
    • There must be some hand off between the hard drive and ES PLayer and finally MX Player that requires a faster connection than the wifi connection can output

    • The connection will go in and out, as well as the tethered connection.
    • The drive does not connect to any computer through USB, only wirelessly, the reset button does not work regardless of how long you hold it in, and it does not hold a reliable connection to my router

    • Pros:-Fast streaming speeds: instantly plays videos, no lag,-very responsive when jumping to the middle of the video-Fast data transfer speeds over wired connection: I transferred 2gb file in less than 30 sec-Multiple connections: tested 4 parallel connections with streaming, no issues-Works well across iOS and android platforms: used on my 2 iPads and 2 android phonesCons:-Wifi connectivity is little flaky sometimes
    • It would be nice to have a Bluetooth connection available
    • I think that the app that comes with it can use some work I sometimes lose connection with it
    • Be careful about touching screen during playback, or you may lose connection
    • Occasionally the connection is interrupted, and I'm guessing it's the cable because other devices don't have that issue when using that same usb port to connect
    • Easy, almost one click connection without going through configurationConsThose below are not relly cons , just differences comparing to older version GoFlex Satellite.- Wireless Plus doesn't come with car charger in box

    • Since 1TB is a whole lot of data to lose I wouldn't even chance it
