The new Seagate Wireless drive comes in a range of vibrant colors. There
is a color to coordinate with one’s wardrobe, mood, or mobile
accessories. Available Seagate Wireless color options include lime
green, cool blue, slate grey, fire-engine red and white.
With space for up to 200 HD movies, people will never be without
entertainment, even when on the road without Internet access. By freeing
up precious space on people’s tablets and smart phones, the Seagate
Wireless drive will become a mobile devices’ favorite companion.
Enjoying saved content is now a social activity when using Seagate
Wireless, which provides the capability to share the contents of the
drive with streams for up to three connected devices simultaneously.
“Seagate pioneered the product category of wireless storage devices and
is pleased at how the category has grown over the years,” said Patrick
Connolly, vice president of Seagate branded innovations. “The latest
generation of Seagate Wireless extends that legacy and makes the
wireless streaming experience broadly available to far more consumers.”
Seagate Wireless storage is accessed through the free mobile Seagate
Media app for Apple
iOS, Android,
Kindle
Fire HD, Windows
8 tablets. Mobile devices connect to Seagate Wireless over a Wi-Fi
connection, which the battery-powered drive emits once powered on.
Simply connect to the drive by searching for Seagate Wireless in
available Wi-Fi networks from any device. The drive emits its own Wi-Fi
signal, eliminating the need to be within range of an existing network
connection.
Additionally, Seagate Wireless can be used to enjoy video, photos, music
and even documents on the big screen via Apple
Airplay, Google
Chromecast, or an app designed specifically for Samsung
and LG
Smart TVs and Roku
players.

Seagate Wireless will be available from Amazon, Best Buy and Seagate.com
by early February for a MSRP of $129.99. Seagate Media app is currently
