In a few months I'll be traveling and I need some way to store a bunch of movies and tv shows. Would you suggest the Kingston WiDrive or Seagate GoFlex Satellite or something else? Thanks!
Got a tip for us?

why not read a trusted comparison, big read (multiple page from the small drop down menu at the bottom) up to the conclusion:

I like the look of the Sandisk Wireless flash drive because of the size but it depends how much storage you're looking for as it only goes up to 32GB.

I went with an other wifi drive that has more flexible storage options and behaves as a power backup if need be.

I work in television and need to travel with a ton of pilots and documentaries to watch while away. I have the Kingston and love it. Simple to load up, connect to and use. Plus it's very thin and light.

Take a look at the Kingston MobileLite Wireless:

or the HooToo Tripmate:

I have both and they give you more options.

I got the SanDisk Media Drive because, in addition to its internal memory, it has an SD card slot. That allows me to view and/or save photos from my camera while traveling. The device only has 64GB internal memory, though, but you can add to this with SD cards.

I have both the 32gb WiDrive and the 1st gen GoFlex. Unfortunately, the WiDrive is quite useless to me, it will only work if formatted in Fat32, so no files larger than 4gb. I purchased the WiDrive because I found the GoFlex a little cumbersome to carry with me on a daily basis, but it's just collecting dust now since it's much more of a hassle worrying about file sizes.
