iPad External Hard Drive

The worlds first and only iPad USB compatible external hard drive.

Well that is what the fast growing HyperShop Claim the HyperDrive Hard Disk to be.

Let’s look at this for a moment, did it say USB….  Yes it certainly did and it is!  Wow what a breakthrough or is it?

It certainly is what it claims to be and what’s more the HyperDrive Colour Space model even allows you to save data to an iPad External Hard Drive from memory cards.  The ability to be able to transfer files, movies and photos without having to login to your PC or laptop is fantastic.

Let me give you an example of how I have seen it used.  A friend of mine is a professional photographer and he is often working on location.  He saves all his shots onto memory cards and then has to upload them to his computer by using an external card reader.  Well now he just pops the memory card into his iPad external hard drive saves the images to his iPad and shows his clients the shots immediately.  His wife who is a wedding photographer is now doing the same and has actually placed 2 iPads in the reception allowing family and guests to see the wedding photographs and place orders the and there!!

This external hard drive has so many features as you can see from the image below:

From memory cards to HyperDrive to the iPad

• You can Directly backup memory cards on to the HyperDrive at speeds up to 2GB per minute without using a computer
• Or if you wish, you can connect HyperDrive as a USB hard drive to the computer to transfer files
• Transfer HD movies, photos and other supported media to the iPad at 1GB/minute speed.
