Question 1

Does this unit come with any storage(built-in or sd card) or do you have to buy a separate sd card to use?

Accepted Answer

It is a shockingly surprisingly simple device.  It's like an over sized memory card reader that never actually connects to either your laptop or kindle/tablet.

You need a regular SD card.  I think it said 8GM max in the instructions, but I have used a 16 and 32 GB SD card without problem.

I was even able to use a micro SD card ... But you have to have the SD adapter that looks like a regular SD card, but you slip the micro into the 'blank' regular SD adapter, and use it regularly in the device.

Question 2

I downloaded the S+ app on my android phone, and get an error that I need a newer app... which then says the Air Drive app isn't available in my country (US)... what?

Accepted Answer

I've tried the other apps... and can't get it to connect.  I can connect to the AirDrive wifi ssid, and can see a index page on chrome at 192.168.2.1... but can't change settings on port 8080, or see files.  Just an index page last modified 1970, although I've got a micro sd card with music/photos/videos...

Question 3

I have an android phone, so will I be able to use the wifi connection whenever and anywhere if I have this device?

Accepted Answer

I think so. Be aware the "Wifi" this generated is not very strong (10 or 15 feet) and when you are "Off" your normal WiFi this will let you access files, not the internet. This device simply allows you to connect to files on the device itself. If you don't have a "Data" plan on your Android, you will be offline, but you should be fine connecting to this device.
