The last time someone tried that, it smelled like my dishwasher farted. I suggest you keep hold the flash.

RAM or storage?RAM, you can't. Storage only through the USB OTG cable, you can connect a flash pendrive or a hard drive, but the HDD would require a powered USB Hub

The flash drive is in Fat 32 format which will have limitation on 4GB or below file tranfering. If you format it to NTFS, you can transfer any size of files as long as the whole capacity allows it. Is this what you mean?

It is not a file thing. I checked that. Certain flash drives don't work for my car. Kingston ones used to work but not anymore.

Can be used both ways. As a normal flash drive but also works with micro USB for phone. I use mine as extra storage in the event that I run low on media storage in my phone.

I bought this thinking the same thing. When I tried to do this, it did not recognize the files that were on the USB. So in my experience it did not work.

My flash drives crashed every time I tried to store multiple files on them. My only recourse was to reformat the drive. I did not have a problem with the speed of storing a file or opening it.

Read/Write speed, how fast you can transmit your files from/to the flash drive

Yes, you can just use the flash drive as well as your computers hard drive or external hard drive. I love my Sharp.

I re-read your question. It sounds like you want to use it on BOTH a MAC and a PC from interchangeably. One to do this which I am familiar with is to format the drive to FAT32. This makes it readable and writable by both mac and windows os...however there are file size limitations with FAT32...but as long as your files are smaller than a couple GB you should be good. There are other solutions....but would be best if you conduct the research yourself.

i have a 30gig drive i would think if you have 500mb left on your drive you need to put some pics and songs or movies on a flash drive. the program puts it on the hard drive to compile it and then burns it to a dvd. i use 3 flash drive to store pics and movies. keeps the hard drive free.

You can use it as any USB flash drive with capacity limited to what you have as card attached to it. I use it for movie library during travel time and my personal portfolio library...Consider it as your wireless hard drive on the go!

It should work either way. I even used a 64gb flash usb drive for a little while when my hard drive burnt up.

it's a webcam, why should it have storage? you just plug the USB, and then use it when you need.... but if you are talking about other technic stuff, I am sorry i am not sure what you're asking about, to my knowledge, it has no storage

I haven't tried, but I don't know why you couldn't. I've scanned to both my hard drive and the "cloud". During the scan process you're asked where you want to store the file. I'm sure a flash drive would show as a choice. Hope this helps.

No. Once you unlock the flash drive with the password, it acts just like any other one. It's just for basic storage only.

I just bought one of these a few days ago. Yes, it does have the mode where you can drag any files onto the device. So far, I have only dragged MP3 files onto it. But the instructions (and many other web forums) say it could actually be used as a simple flash drive - so I am guessing you can *store* any type of file you like. I am not sure what fule types it will recognize and actually play.
