Will the Voyager Air support all file types? Can I transfer games and save data to the Voyager Air or is it limited to audio, video, and documents?

Yes and due to its small size you can take it on vacation, to a friends house, etc.

You can do all files type with no problem. Just Remember that you must use the Voyager Air Software, to access the drive if you are using the built wifi. Other than that, it us a USb 3.0 hd. With the use of the cable the drive can be accessed with no problem

None. You can buy an external USB drive or share a drive from another computer. We use our portable for that purpose.

Yes, I have all my documents saved by default to the f:drive, and primary games and programs on the c:drive(SSD). instructions explain it very well.

No, you can use the external hard drive, it only support internal hard drive, sorry for that.

Good response. I would caution against an external HD for video (music and other relatively small files are fine). I have a Iomega external and I am unable to use it with my video editing software (I am unsure why). Also my external drive will not support files larger than about 4GB (videos).

You can store any files, including media and will stream to your computer over USB. This unit works like any other USB drive.

There so many different file types. Most music is in Mp3 format- Yes it does support them; there are Wavs, which are sound clips- Yes it does support them; There are WMAs (as mentioned below) it plays them. There are movies; they are avi's and mp4's- Yes it supports them (And more). But you must first download them to your computer, then you can transfer them to your player, I have found very few files it won't play.

I have not experienced any issues with the documents and mp3s that I have stored on the device. Unfortunately, I can not address your inquiry as it pertains to photo images. If your PC is currently using the USB 2.0 ports, this drive should be backwards compatible (being a 3.0 device) with it. However, the data transfer rates will be restricted by the speed of the 2.0 port.

You can store tv shows and photos along with movies on the unit. However, you are going to have to do somethings for the tv shows and the movies to fit to the unit. If you use media center to record tv shows and movies then the file format will be too big to simply transfer via drag and drop. This will force you to convert the files and then drag and drop. Overall I have a WD but not one of 500GB but I love it because I have a laptop without alot of space on the HDD. This stores all of my files (movies, tv shows, music, photos, and standard files). Works great I have had mine for 5 months now.

I have purchased several of these devices, but have not opened any. Dont know if its worth the risk. Purchased a Tripe Mate Elite by HooToo, which is a wireless router that lets you connect an external hard drive (&gt;1TB), do pass thrus, etc. Check this device in Amazon and read reviews. Cost was pretty minimal $40. Then you can have several HD's and used the one you want. Need to check the movie whether MP4, or what, has some limitations.

Hi Rye! I think that is not compatible because this device has his own software: WD smartware (that is very easy to use) and bring an USB cable, you only have to install it and it'll do all work . This device can save all your info(videos, images, file, etc) automatically, you only have to connect it to your pc. Take care!

Yes to the first and yes to the second, but if that's jus ur intent jus buy a jump drive way cheaper. Go to airstash web site and see the main purpose use for transfering data.

I'm not sure what computer you have....mac PC in any case when you plug in the drive....make sure it's properly seated in the voyager....then hit the button on the back and the Voyager will light up. For PC go to Computer and see if the drive shows up there....for mac go to finder...

I contacted Sony customer support, here is the question and response: Model : bdp-s570 Question: When will you offer firmware that will allow more video file formats mkv, m4v, mp4, m2ts, etc... to be streamed over the network connection from a DLNA media server? At this point it plays very few file types. one of the main reasons I purchased this product was to stream video over my network. Thank You Response: Thank you for contacting Sony Support. I'm sorry, but there is no update available to support the additional file formats via DLNA. I've provided a link with the information on the file types that are supported when using the DLNA feature: http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C1017936 Thank you for your time.

I know you can transfer files such and photos,pdf's, and documents. but not sure if you can back other data such as contacts or games. Mine died before I could do extensive testing with it. It no longer recharges.
