Is it meant for storage or is it a good device to edit off if you have a laptop?

It's fast enough to edit from for me, but I more photo centric versus video. Having said that I use it strictly as a storage unit.

I have two computers. Desktop / laptop. I run my Lightroom catalog and all my images with this it allows me to keep the same library on both computers. It has allowed me to edit any when and not miss a best.

Hi, Jeff, It's great for laptop too but be sure you have a true thunderbolt connection, not the port that looks like it but is actually for an external monitor. The G-Drive videos on their site show a lot of uses from top photojournalists. It's the reason I bought it...advice from Alex Buono and others in a workshop. Good luck! Nadia

I use it to edit camera RAW photos. If you have a thunderbolt equipped laptop I would think that this would be plenty fast.

Works fine either way. I store on it, then carry it with me and plug it into my laptop. It comes with a cable to plug into a USB port.

I used this to put my printer software and some other software on my laptop. Does this help?

I have not checked the storage or the computer back-up factors for this device but this does have a backlight on it.Guess this is useful for storing passwords , debit card pin and info that should not get spilled over to the internet even by mistake.Thats why its quite handy, especially while travelling. I had been gifted a diary for one of my birthdays about a decade and a half ago and I think it is useful to have a device like this, inspite of cell phone. and other wireless communication devices. Thank you, Regards, prefersAnon

It is good enough for casual recording and youtube quality. If you want better quality, you need to consider Vado HD which is more expensive.

Presently I have a drive connected to it as a backup device for my laptop. Temporarily. However it is mostly used to check drives and retrieve data.

No and it is not good on the Internet. You can use a USB had or thumb drive but t It doesn't do much else.

You can move files to and from the tablet or use it as extra storage. Put personal data that you need on the use and not on the table for better security. Ps get a file explorer app. It works great

With the adapter that comes with it, yeah I've transfered files from my laptop to it just the other day. But to use it as extra memory for a laptop(is that what your wanting to know?) it is not for that purpose. It is a memory card for tablets and smartphones.

yes, it has the possibility to save your images, photos, docs. separate or together if you check pdf. I hope this answers your question.

I've never been able to load to it. It's a simple word processor like "notepad" (it's only got rudimentary stuff like create and export). Editing (on a four sentence old school display) is virtually impossible. That's why it's mostly used as a fast drafting tool.

My experience is you should NOT rely on this memory usb to save your files. I bougth it because the large amount of memory (256 gb) at such a low price. It just NOT true. I suggest not buy it.

It's a loop recording so it erases past info. Just get an 8 gb card. Only record in 3 minute sessions as you won't be able to send recorded video if file is too big.

You have to store someplace. I have a dedicated Netbook with 70gb HDD. I auto retain 48 hours then auto delete. If I don't want specific file deleted, I save to mem stick. You can redirect temp auto save to where ever you want. Can be mem stick or where ever.

I've been using it mainly for gaming, but yes, it is good for other programs like Photoshop. It's great for storing long macro sequences in each key.

It is kind of overkill for that purpose. You can get a cheap usb 2.0 or SD card for half the price and it would be fine for that purpose. It is like buying a Ferrari to go grocery shopping.

I didn't. But I guess that depends on how often and for what purpose you intend to use it. I've used it for simple short videos and then I download them to my computer and delete them off the camera. If you needed the additional storage I guess you should.

To be honest, I haven't used it for that too much. I have done some music editing, and it seems to work just fine. I use my tower at home for most of my video work, this is just a travel machine.
