Seagate today announced the next evolution in the company's wireless storage category - the Seagate Wireless Plus mobile device storage. The device now consists of a family of capacities at 500 GB, 1 TB and 2 TB versions and is designed to expand beyond the limitations of mobile devices. It can be used to stream your favorite HD video while freeing up space on your Android Tablet, iPad, iPhone, Android Smart Phone, Kindle Fire, Windows 8 computers and Windows RT tablets.

The Seagate Wireless Plus also includes a new option to save content and files to the drive wirelessly through the updated Seagate Media app as well as the ability to migrate files to cloud services such as Dropbox and Google Drive.



Seagate Wireless Plus mobile device storage is accessed through the mobile Seagate Media app for Apple iOS, Android, Kindle Fire HD, Windows 8 tablets. It connects to devices over a Wi-Fi connection, which the battery-powered drive emits once powered on. The drive creates its own Wi-Fi network, eliminating the need to be within range of an existing network connection.

Additionally, you can use Wireless Plus to enjoy video, photos, music and even documents on the big screen via Apple Airplay, DLNA or an app designed specifically for Samsung Smart TVs and Blu-ray players.

Seagate Wireless Plus mobile storage has a supported battery life of up to 10 hours and provides its own Wi-Fi signal to enable access to the drive. The drive is now available at 2 TB for an MSRP of $199.99 and 1 TB for $179.99 MSRP. The 500 GB capacity point will be available from Seagate.com as of Friday, May 9th at a MSRP of $149.99 MSRP, but can be purchased by pre-order today.
