Wireless Flash Drive

The Wireless Flash Drive is a wireless media streaming and storage device that fits into keychain friendly flash drive-like device. If you want to enjoy movies and music on your phone, but don't want to fill up the phone's limited storage space, this may be the answer you've been looking for.

Design and Features


At first glance, the drive looks like a standard flash drive, measuring 3.07 by 1.04 by 0.54 inches (HWD) and fitting easily into a pocket or hanging on a keychain. The three-inch long drive has a black plastic enclosure, which has a textured stripe running down the front of it to provide some traction when pushing and pulling the drive in and out of a USB port. A tethering loop on the back end of the drive lets you attach it to a keychain or lanyard. The only issue with the design is that the drive is a bit too bulky, making it difficult to use with some USB ports.

The end of the drive has a sliding metal cover that pulls back to expose a USB 2.0 connector which you can plug directly into any USB port. In two weeks of testing, the only issue I saw with the design was that the black paint on the end cap didn't hold up well when jangling around in a pocket with keys, with the paint chipping off from simply being carried in a pocket.

Though it looks like a regular flash drive, it's actually more accurate to call it a wireless card reader, as all of the storage resides in a 32GB microSDHC card that can be removed from the card slot on the back end of the device. Inside the device is a rechargeable battery, which charges up whenever it's plugged into a USB port, and a transmitter that lets you connect to the drive wirelessly via Wi-Fi. Because the drive is designed only to stream and share content over this Wi-Fi signal, but not provide an internet connection the way a mobile hotspot does, you can also enjoy the functions of the device when regular 4G or Wi-Fi is inaccessible, such as in a subway tunnel or a basement office. The wireless connection has a range of up to 150 feet (line of sight), and can support multiple connections.

The other distinguishing feature of the drive is a small button in the center of the drive, which turns the wireless transmitter on and off. Press it once to turn on, and a blue LED indicator blinks every few seconds to let you know it's accessible via Wi-Fi. Press and hold to turn it off.


The Wireless Flash Drive comes with a 32GB microSDHC card in the built-in card slot, and there's a 16GB version also available. However, because the storage card is removable, you also have the option of swapping out the card for another, or upgrading yourself to a bigger card further down the road. The Wireless Flash Drive is one of the best deals HSIT has seen for this sort of storage, and it comes with the bonus or wireless sharing and streaming. The Wireless Flash Drive has a one-year limited warranty.

Wireless Flash Drive App

The Wireless Flash Drive access the drive, and all of the files in it, through Wireless Flash Drive App, which is available for free through Google Play and iTunes App Store, providing support for a wide range of Android and iOS devices. With the app on your mobile device, just open the app and follow the prompts to wirelessly connect to the drive.

The app itself is a fairly basic file browser, but its strength lies in its simplicity. Upon opening the app it will walk you through the process of connecting to the Wireless Flash Drive via Wi-Fi, along with prompting you for any needed password. Once you've successfully connected to the drive, you can browse through the folders and files stored on the drive in one of two display modes, list (sorted alphabetically) and grid. Navigation is simple, with basic swipe and tap functions.

The drive comes with four default folders already on the drive (Documents, Music, Photos, and Video) but there's no reason not to use your own preferred file setup. Included in the Videos file is a collection of introductory videos, which explain some of the functions of the drive, and how to use them.

With most wireless drives taking up as much space in your pockets as a phone, these drives always seemed a bit inconvenient, but the small form factor makes the wireless USB drive immensely more convenient. The one-button wireless connection and simple free app are also easy to use, keeping complexity to a minimum.

Cloud Networks makes Your IT Employee's life easier : From High Speed IT Network Services LLC. (HSIT).

Many businesses have started using cloud networks in an attempt to make life easier for employees and corporate data handling. Not only that, but the cloud offers many benefits that are impossible to emulate with a traditional server due to technical limitations. If you are trying to figure out if a cloud is right for your business, then you should consider the benefits that it has for your employees. Here are just a few things that the cloud can do for your business according to High Speed IT Network Services LLC (HSIT).

Access Software

The vast majority of businesses use either a proprietary software solution, or they license an expensive program that is difficult for individuals to purchase. Regardless of which description fits you, the truth is that your employees need special programs to do their work. If they are unable to access that software, then they can't do their projects and other work.

A cloud network easily allows employees to access software because the network is based on the Internet. Every program is Web-based, which means that your workers can use them through any computer as long as there is an Internet connection. This ensures that your workers can continue working even after the day is over if needed.

Better Telecommuting

Many workers have to commute to their job, which presents many problems. First of all, there is a high chance that workers will be late because they are caught in traffic. Most employees also hate driving or taking the train for several hours to get to the office. This has led many employers to accept telecommuting, or employees that work over the Internet.

The problem is that many telecommuting solutions don't work very well. If you have a special program or files that the worker needs to access, then he or she might be unable to complete a project until someone transfers over the proper files.

A cloud network makes this easier because server access is simple. If the employee needs to get a file, then he or she can just sign on and access the server. If the employee needs a program, then it's available on the online interface. The flexibility of a cloud server makes it the same no matter where you are, so when you're at home it's just like being at the office.

Telecommuting doesn't just make workers happy. This can also reduce the number of sick days. Many employees that call out are too sick to drive or commute for several hours, but they are well enough to do some of their work if they don't have to travel. This allows them to work even if they can't move very well.

The same can be said of calling out due to injury. Someone with a broken leg can still work from the hospital if you have a cloud network. This allows your employees to make a living even if they can't go to the office for one reason or another.

Better Security


Many people are saying that the cloud isn't safe, but High Speed IT Network Services LLC (HSIT) experts suggests that cloud solutions are often safer than people assume. How does this make things better for your employees?

Hackers often steal a lot of money from companies, which makes it harder for you to give out promotions, increase salaries and pay your employees what they deserve. This is not an expense that businesses wants to pay, nor is it one that most businesses expect.

The cloud is more secure than traditional servers because there are often more security programs watching the server's activity. It's also much harder for employees to access the servers, which means that internal theft is quite difficult.

Authentication is also stricter with most cloud solutions to make it much harder for someone to sign into the network. It takes more than a simple username and password. The user usually has to supply information from his or her device that consistently matches the cloud's records.

This will decrease your spending, which will allow you to do more for your employees.


According to High Speed IT Network Services LLC (HSIT) the cloud is great for employees because they can easily access files and programs without having to be connected to the company's server. They can also work from home without any hassle. The only thing you have to do now is implement this system so that you and your employees can reap the benefits of this advanced technology.
