Hitachi's G-Technology announces the G-Connect-- a portable HDD providing both wireless storage and wifi internet access for smartphone and tablet users.
It carries 500GB of storage, with support for up to x5 simultaneous devices. G-Technology says the drive can handle up to either x5 SD or x3 HD simultaneous media streams.
Protection comes through password options, which include private folders.
If one connects it to an ethernet connection it also acts as a wifi hotspot.
Users access drive contents via web browsers, while iDevice users get a companion app (Android users will also get their own version of the app later this year).
