The SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive includes all the benefits of a regular flash drive plus wireless mobile access. Sandisk gives you an app that allows you to connect to the Flash Drive's WiFi and transfer files. You can either connect via USB on the Mac or connect using a WiFi network.

I've just received my SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive and can report a little more on its workings (I reserve the right to post this also on my blog at blog.tempel.org):

The hardware

The Stick has a normal USB 2 Type A plug that fits into any computer's common USB port. It has a retractable protective cap around it. Plugging the stick into a computer charges the stick's battery.

Sandisk Connect Drive App For Computer

It has a microSD port which contains the microSD card with the specified storage (16 or 32 GB). Mine contains a SanDisk Ultra microSDHC I 32GB card. Apparently, larger (e.g. 64 GB) cards can be used as well, see 'SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive and microSDXC support': http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/8075/kw/wfd

For its portable wireless operation it has an internal rechargeable battery. That battery is not user-serviceable, i.e. if it goes dead (which they all do after usually 1-4 years), the device will probably (hopefully!) still function as a USB drive but not wirelessly. Sandisk's user manual claims that you'd have to have it exchanged by a Sandisk service provider (what a hassle that may be, and what costs that incurs is unknown to me right now).

The stick has two LEDs, one orange and one blue. The orange one indicates use of the USB port and charge progress, while the blue one indicates WiFi operation.

There is a button on the stick to turn its wireless operation on and off, by pressing it for about about 2 seconds. It can also be used to reset the device by holding it for 15 seconds (which will not erase the memory card but only reset the wireless settings). The button is slightly indented but has no lock to prevent accidental activation.

Supported volume formats

The flash drive must be formatted in FAT32 format. Other formats I tried (HFS+ or exFAT) are not supported (the drive understands the format but says it doesn't support them). Oddly, it says that I should reformat it in a 'supported' format - it doesn't specifically say FAT, so it could be that other formats (etx2/ext3, perhaps?) may be supported as well, but I could not find any details on supported formats on its support pages (http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/list/kw/wfd/). The bad news is: FAT32 has a grave limitation: It can store files only up to an individual size of 4GB. So, if you have a file larger than 4GB, it can't be stored on this stick.

Well, wait. If you use the stick ONLY to plug it into a computer's USB port, then you may reformat it in HFS+ or NTFS, and copy files > 4 GB onto it. But you won't be able to use the wireless feature of this stick with any unsupported format, meaning that if you want to use it wirelessly, you'll be stuck with files limited to 4GB in size. Not a grave issue, I reckon, as it's unlikely you'll ever run into the situation where you want to copy a file > 4 GB wirelessly from or to a device that doesn't have a USB port (such as a smartphone).

BTW, erasing the stick's memory isn't harmful, of course, because its settings and firmware are stored in its own internal flash memory that can't be removed. In fact, when I installed the Sandisk software on my iPhone and connected to the Flash Drive, it installed a new firmware onto the stick right away. I sugget that if you want to use it wirelessly, be sure to check and install their latest firmware right away (see 'Updating the SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive's firmware manually': http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/12713).

How it operates

USB operation

If you plug it into a computer's USB port, it behaves exactly like any other USB Flash Drive. It comes pre-formatted with FAT32. It contains a few sample files (pictures, videos) as well as the user manual in several languages and the instructional videos that are also available on Sandisk's web page. If you choose to reformat the drive, all the files will be lost (i.e. they don't get automagically restored from its internal firwmware). So you better make a copy of those files if you like to keep them (but I assume you'll be able to find at least the manuals on their web site, too).

As long as the stick is plugged into a computer and its drive is mounted on the computer, the stick's wireless function is completely off.

But even if you unmount (eject) the volume, so that the computer's USB plug should only act as a charger (which is does, as the orange light indicates), you cannot activate the wireless function. This, in fact, sucks: If the stick is low on battery power, you cannot provide power to it from a computer, as that automatically disables the wireless funcionality, even if you do not access the disk from the computer. I wonder if a firmware update could fix this.

However, if you plug the stick into a pure USB charger such as a iPhone charger, then the stick's wireless functionality remains operational.

Wireless operation

The stick always provides its own access point (with or without WPA2 protection) to which you can connect when you're on the road. It can additionaly join other networks that you have to pre-configure - that way, you can have the stick join your home and other frequently visited wireless networks, allowing your computer or mobile device to keep being connected to the internet while concurrently accessing the stick's data. However, the Sandisk app on my iOS devices sometimes has trouble finding the stick when both the iPhone and the stick are connected to a joined network, whereas it's immediately seen by the app when the iPhone is connected to the stick's own network, even when I can verify that the stick is accessible from the same phone via the web browser. Usually, after a few minutes of retrying, the SanDisk app finally sees the stick, too.

Note: To change any of the stick's settings one must connect the iPhone directly to the stick's wireless network. For more details on joining networks, see 'SanDisk Connect Wireless Flash Drive's unsupported routers': http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/8072

The wireless access can be protected by a WPA2 password. If you want to use a password, you're forced to make it at least 8 chars long. Which is rather annoying - if I have the choice to use no password as well, why force me to a long password when I just want a casual protection with a few chars (after all, no one knows how long it is and if I want to share the pw with others, the shorter the better, while other people in the vicinity usually do not run brute-force attack programs on their Androids just waiting for me to use a one-letter password).

Oddly, I could not manage to enable the password protection via the iPhone app (v1.3.0), but it worked when I did it via web browser access. The web browser access also lets me choose the wireless channel (1-13 or 'auto') while the iPhone app doesn't. I used the iPad's Safari browser for this, so I reckon that even iPhone uses can get to these settings using the browser instead of the Sandisk app.

Note: The stick has a DCHP server, with its own address at 172.25.61.1 and a network mask of 255.255.255.0 ('class C'). If you have this stick, too, let us know if yours uses a different IP address.

Sandisk Connect Drive App For Mac Os

Here are the option to access the stick's drive wirelessly:

• Web browser. If you have connected to the stick's own wireless network (there are other ways, see below), you can simple open a web browser at address www.sandisk.com/WFD/ to get a web interface that lets you download from (but not upload to) the stick's flash memory and access some of its settings (set the network name (SSID), enable password protection (WPA2), choose the WiFi channel, and set the power-off timer to None, 15, 30 or 60 minutes). You cannot use it to have the stick join other known networks (such as your home network), though, oddly - that only works with the dedicated apps (see below).
  If you know the stick's IP address or network name, you can use that, too, to access it via the web browser. That's useful if the stick joins your home network, for instance (you could then set up your home router to assign always the same IP address to this stick).
  
• Mobile app. I've installed the Sandisk app (v1.3.0) on both my iPhone and iPad. It lets me download and upload files, though files downloaded from the stick can not be passed to other apps on the iOS devices, yet. Once a file is uploaded, there seems to be no way to rename or move it, either. Only available operations are: Delete, New Folder, Save images and videos to the photo album, and the 'social' functions: Mail, Message, Tweet. This means, you cannot take a Pages or even a plain text document, send it to the stick in order to have someone else pick it up from the stick and get it back into his device's editing app for further processing. I hope a later version of the iOS app will fix this, as it's fairly easy to implement. However, the fact that this app is already at the 4th revision, it makes me wonder what they're doing..
  At least the other way works: I can send files from other apps, e.g. Dropbox, to the SanDisk app so that it can then be uploaded to the stick.
  Another shortcoming of the iOS app is that it does not support 'iTunes file sharing', i.e. one cannot exchange files with this app via iTunes, either.
  
• WebDAV. Using the Mac Finder's 'Connect To Server' menu command, the stick can be reached using the http WebDAV protocol. This works, but just read-only. This is quite a disappointment, because it rules out the use of any common WebDAV supporting app, both on desktop computers and mobile devices, to conveniently store files onto the stick without the need for the limited SanDisk app. This could certainly need improvement by SanDisk.
  
• Sadly, neither FTP, AFP nor SMB / CIFS network access appear to be supported.

Conclusion

This is a USB flash drive with an optional built-in wireless file server. The wireless options are rather limited, though, due to the fact that wireless uploading to the stick is very limited: I'm bound to the mobile apps. It should not be too hard for SanDisk to add WebDAV upload as well, but maybe that's a marketing decision to cripple this feature on purpose. Who knows? With the firmware at 3.0.1, I'd think they'd have figured out how to add this capability if they really wanted to. Same goes for the inability to upload files via their web browser interface.

As long as you want to use this stick to share files that you have prepared on your computer or just share images and videos, these limitations will not affect you. But do not expect this stick to act as a portable wireless file server, allowing you to have multiple users store files on it, because it can't do this, and possibly never will.
