I was excited when Sandisk announced the Wireless Media Drive. The media playing features are secondary to me. I plan to use it to backup, archive, and preview photos while I am on vacation. I will not need to bring along a laptop PC for this purpose. I will backup and preview my photos on a 7" Android tablet . Since the Android tablet does not have an SDHC slot for my camera photo card, I will use the WMD as an intermediate device. The WMD will also to provide some extra storage if needed. After a couple of days I discovered some limitations and deficiencies with the WMD.
- I was discouraged to read in the FAQ that I am unable to copy directly to the WMD memory from an inserted SD card.
- Auto shutdown engaged after a short time while downloading a file from SD card to local device when on battery power
- Auto shutdown engaged after a short time while playing songs from WMD memory when on battery power
- I am unable to make a new file folder on the Sandisk Media drive using the Sandisk app
- Upload to local Android device from WMD SD card limited to the Gallery folder.
- Upload to local Android device from WMD SD card does not copy directory structure except from the FILES option
- No option to upload to the local Android device SD card if there is one.
- ES File Explorer needs to be able to manage files on the Sandisk Media Drive.
I hope these items will be address in a future firmware update.
