Is there a product I can buy to give this hard drive Wireless connectivity other than a router?

This is a question I would address directly to a Fantom service tech. I believe their phone number is on the back of the instruction manual.

Buy a hard drive with a LAN port built into it. Western digital makes several at decent rates. Also do a search for "LAN external hard drive"

There is an Ethernet connection socket on the back. It isn't wireless (it's a desktop unit). Having said that, I bought/installed a USB wireless network adapter on the 2 units bought due to difficulties in running cable.

I don't have this hard drive yet, they have not sent it back to me. But it is not a network storage device, it connects to your computer via firewire or USB. At least that's what it should do.

Yes, it is safe to keep it connected to the router all the time. You can check the list of tested USB hard drives on this link, http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=5dee65386ed848d3b174757922b19c6d_List_of_tested_USB_hard_drives_and_printers_for_the_Linksys_.xml&pid=80&respid=0&snid=2&dispid=0&cpage=search.

I have a 2TB HDD connected to a Netgear router. According to the literature, the 2TB is the upper limit of what can be supported with a direct connection to a router. You should, however, be able to connect the 3TB unit directly to your PC. I had read where Windows now takes storage units greater then 2TB. That said, I'd do a search with BING or GOOGLE to verify that or, perhaps, talk to somebody at BEST BUY or similar.Good luck!

Yes you can if it connects by USB. You can also connect over a network if the drive is shared and skip the wires.

The WD works with a Network wire. However, you can have a Wireless connection without a wireless Modem/Router.

No, but try connecting the wireless I/O to the computer using os provided drivers.

I imagine you could. I don't recall seeing any specifications stating otherwise. Bear in mind, however, that the product works through a router which needs to be on in order for files to be accessible.

Sorry, but I don't know. I did try to add a USB drive and the router forgot about it's internal drive. I just had nothing but bad luck with this router. I still say I give WD 5 stars on their drives, but I don't think they should be in the router business.

Not directly. It can be used wireless if you have a router that allows USB drives to be plugged in.

Use another computer to download the wireless drivers (and the rest of the drivers while you're at it). Transfer them over with a flash drive, and install them.

Yeah, Seagate has their app available on the app store from where you can upload anything from your phone to the HDD over WiFi.

Yes, you can use a thumb drive or a hard drive on the router as a network drive Follow the instructions in the setup and you will have it up and running in no time. You can assign read only or read write to the drive as well as password access.You can find more detailed information on the manufacturers website.Hope this helps.

Ram? You can not, Disk? A SD card or a USB stick will suffice but also, as it's wifi, you can connect it wirelessly to computers, hard disk and other mobile phones.

It's not wireless, it has a wired Gigabit network card. I'm sure you can use all the different sized drives but you probably can't make them part of a drive array. Are you looking for a server or a way to share your hard drives? Windows server software (or Linux for that case) can share drives and folders but it takes some knowledge of the operating system.
