Seagate launches wireless hard drive

To meet the growing storage needs of Seagate Technology mobile users and Motorola decided to invest in the mobile storage market. The result is a wireless storage device with the ability to store gigabytes of digital or digital music data.

Seagate's 10GB to 20GB wireless storage device is a medium sized pocket. Digital Audio Video Experience (DAVE) uses a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi wireless connection to share data with a PC or mobile device. The maximum connection distance can be up to 9.1m.

Seagate is expected to start offering this new storage device line for telecom carriers and mobile device manufacturers in the second quarter of this year.

The biggest advantage of DAVE is that it can help increase the storage capacity of mobile phones without increasing the size or production cost. Content providers can also use DAVE to provide more convenient visual music services, no longer subject to coverage barriers.

Meanwhile, Motorola has invested in an application software development company that allows mobile devices to share wireless data relatively easily. Just install an additional software that users can easily share content via mobile phone, PC or any other mobile device.

It can be said that the demand for storage capacity for mobile devices is increasing rapidly as the product category is moving towards becoming a mobile personal entertainment center.

Especially now when entertainment content starts to move to high resolution format, the demand for storage space increases. Simply by storing standards like this often requires a very large storage space.
