Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2025Muy funcional. La conexión por Wireless una buena opción para pasar archivos. 🙏🏼
- Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2021Bought this as a way to backup my photos from SD cards while out in the field. Downloaded the app, hooked it all up, but it will not do a backup from an SD card. The option is there, but it doesn't work. I tried multiple SD cards but nothing. It just sits there doing nothing. I can manually move photos from the SD card to the drive, but I do not feel safe doing this as I once accidentally deleted everything from my SD card. The interface is horrendous and the fact that it just freeze up every time you try to backup an SD card means it is worthless to me.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2024Loaded this drive up with moves for a 19 hour road trip each way. Kids never ran out of movies to watch. We also used it in the hotel to stream movies since the hotel wifi sucked. Idiot proof setup and ipad application is easy to use.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2021Only had it for 2 weeks. Had to download the instructions from online. Which is al good. Working with it for 2 weeks, testing different connectivity's. Here are my ideas:
Pro:
1. It works, so USB 3.0.,Ethernet, or WIFI. All works. Only thing i still want to try is connecting it direct to my camera. As soon as i test that i will update my review.
2. It is portable. I can take it easy everywhere. Fits in my pocket.
3. Build in battery is good enough.
4. WIFI is strong, for a small device.
Cons:
1. It is not as fast that they say it is. Fastest way would be USB connected. But LAN or through WIFI it takes a while.
2. Software needs updating. Sometimes it gets stuck. Sometimes it works just fine. Some times you have to turn of turn on so it connects. Online i wish it could give a type of way that i can use a link to update stuff from another phone. Than i don't need do every time have the app to upload stuff.
Overall it is OK. I'm a proud ravpower owner. So i wanted to try something else, positive about this is, the ravepower HUB is just a HUB, had to connect Harddrive and USB to back up files. This has its own HDrive. So that is 1 positive point for me when im at work and need to back up video files.
26/03/ 2022 Update: So I've been traveling and making use of this as my HDD on the go for my media files. I've used is as backup for my camera footages. Also for hotspot and providing internet to my family. I ran in a couple of issue with it, I've mailed support about my issues, and les than 2 days I got really good response. Support team was really easy to talk with. Gave them my suggestions, and they suddenly provide ideas how to make it better. From them there will be an update coming soon.
I still did not try connecting it direct to a camera. But from my feeling it will not work, because the ethernet port on it is more for networking on a system that has a software and that is not something my camera has.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2022This drive works for what I need it for - holding a large volume of movies I watch while traveling. (BTW, I download them from my paid subscription services with an app called Playon.) The device creates its own wifi network which I connect to with my iPad. I can also share the password with others traveling with me and they can watch anything in the library, not necessarily the same as what I am watching. However, the app (iPad software) leaves something to be desired. First, the navigation looks like something from 1998; a basic folder tree rather than recognizing movies and grabbing the thumbnails (like Plex does.) And the iPad must be in portrait orientation to read it. Once the movie starts I can rotate the iPad into landscape mode and I'm happy again. So if the kids are traveling with me, I have to help them get things set up. I wouldn't think it would require much code to fix the orientation issue or to provide an easier to use interface, but no one took the time which is annoying and why I didn't give it a full five stars.
3 month Update: The battery life on this unit is terrible after just a few uses. Even after overnight charge it didn’t last a whole movie. I sold It in our last garage sale and will be shopping for something better. The idea is awesome but very poor execution. Dropped rating down to two stars.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2020that took hours. The first time I installed the Android app, the transfers between my phone and the drive were EXTREMELY SLOW, but after uninstalling it and reinstalling the drive is now very fast. I found the iOS app much better at setting up the drive and it does have automatic backup for photos and videos. The Android app will also ask to backup new photos automatically, but can't be disabled. I found it's best to configure the drive with no cables connected using battery power. This was the cause of some of the difficulty configuring the drive since the battery was dead on arrival and I had it connected to my computer to charge.
The mistake I was making was trying to use it as a USB drive on my computer and backup from my phones, but that isn't supported. If you boot the drive without the USB port connected, it will boot into the NAS and backup mode.
For home use I've attached it via LAN cable to my router. This does make the file transfers much faster and then you don't have to switch your WiFi to the SSK Cloud hotspot.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2021It's nice to use it in one environment, set up once (you need to know a bit, it's not very easy) and it works, but it's a portable device and here is the IP address problem. In the second environment, set up all over again (internet connection, network drive, etc) and keep repeating this over and over again, even after returning to the first environment. So you better use a cable. What is WiFi for here? Attention! installing software on a computer may wipe network drive settings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Me agradó el producto. Espero sea duradero.
Me gustó, nada más que para utilizarlo en su forma inalámbrica parece ser que dependo de una app. Espero y el producto sea duradero.

1.0 out of 5 stars Fred’s review
I recently purchased this drive with the hope of using it to back up my iPhone, which is full of precious family memories. Unfortunately, my experience with this product was far from satisfactory.
User Guide Issues: The user guide was so small that I couldn’t read the instructions to connect to the drive. I had to resort to searching for tutorials on YouTube, which was inconvenient and time-consuming.
Transfer Problems: I intended to transfer video recordings from my iPhone to the drive, but the process was incredibly frustrating. The transfer would stop working after just three minutes, forcing me to reconnect to the drive via WiFi and restart the transfer each time. It took me five hours to move just 20 recordings.
Slow Performance: Due to the slow WiFi transfer speeds, I decided to connect the drive directly to my laptop. Even then, it took an exhausting 11 hours to transfer my files. I had to stay up until 2 AM to complete the transfer of 98 folders, as the drive couldn’t calculate the time for all the folders at once.
Data Security Concerns: After finally finishing the transfer, I was so disappointed that I decided to return the drive to Amazon. However, I was concerned that my data might not be completely deleted, so I opted to use an old USB drive instead.
Final Thoughts: Overall, this WiFi drive was not worth the hassle. If you’re considering purchasing this product, be aware that you might lose your precious data. I cannot recommend it based on my experience.
