Does this have an internal storage device or is it just a mechanism to transfer data from one device to another?

The one I purchased was a gift for a family member. This does burn and copy DVDs but requires an external usb thumb drive to give it enough memory to do so. Hope that helps.

I honest do not know. I bought this for a friend who asked me to get it for him. Sorry.

This is what I want to know too. I think this doesn't have a hard drive otherwise they would list the size of the drive in the specs. One reviewer said he connected it to a portable hard drive. Seems kind of useless if it doesn't have it's own hard drive.

No it's not USB connected. It requires a micro card to operate and stores every thing on it. You can transfer data via a USB cord that's included. Micro card not included. The card is all I've been using.

If your computer does not have an SD slot this is definitely a device that you can use to move data back and forth between the card and your computer.

Depends on the size of the SD card you use. No internal storage comes with it.

No, it used an SD card. Be certain to get the Class 10 that provides the fastest data transfer.

No. It's for transfer from one hard drive to another only... The hardware in the cord does the transfer automatically.

Short answer: yes. Long answer: It's a very standardized interface supported in almost any operating system. You should expect this to work as well as a USB flash drive. There may be some slight differences between operating systems, such as whether it powers down when not in use and how long (within a narrow range) it takes to start transferring data. Otherwise you'll have no problems.

This is an external drive, can work in both platforms. You may want to format the drive before using

No it does not. However, you can use the multicard reader and USB drives to save or burn files.

No internal capacity. A USB drive can be attached directly or storage can be accessed via WiFi.

It has the internal memory but its very less. It has the capability to expand the memory by inserting the memory card.

Does not have an internal drive. However we purchased a usb external unit from Amazon for about $30 and it writers perfectly

Yes you should be able to move USB Thumb drive data to SD Card with the device

Yes, Kevin... It is a plug & play device. It comes with its own USB cable, so all you have to do is plug it into the USB port of your computer and drag and drop files from one to the other. Best, Gene

The seagate drive is an external drive for backup which is what I use if for. Why would you want to backup one storage device to another? To do this you would need to copy from one device to another using a computer, laptop, tablet etc to move the date from 1 device to another

It uses a thumb drive, I don't even know if there is any internal memory. Probably not. I gave as a gift so I didn't really try it out.

Perhaps you misunderstood the advertising. This is a real computer. It has a hard drive, and can save things to the hard drive just like any other computer. The only difference is that the operating system is Ubuntu/Linux rather than Windows or Mac. But you can move files to/from this computer to Windows or Mac via USB or other means. The web storage, in the advertisement is a personal "cloud" thing. You can upload stuff there, just in case you do something to your computer that requires reinstallation of the OS. You could also retrieve cloud files from elsewhere (although I don't know if the other computer has to be an Ubuntu type). I've never used the web storage.
