A WiFi-enabled hard drive serving computers and mobile devices alike

Launching today, the new GoFlex Satellite wireless hard drive from Seagate enables users to wirelessly stream movies, music, photos, and documents directly to their mobile device or computer. While the drive comes with a companion app, it also works seamlessly through any web browser. Five hundred GB of storage, up to five hours of streaming battery life and the ability to serve content to multiple connected devices at once make this hard drive great for families and workgroups alike.

The beauty of the GoFlex Satellite is that it creates its own Wi-Fi network, so there’s no outside internet source required, allowing users to connect to their media wherever they may find themselves. Just set your network to “GoFlex Satellite” and type in any URL to be automatically redirected to the GoFlex Satellite media browser, once there you’re set to browse all of your media freely. Plus, with a range of 150 feet, you’re welcome to move about freely without being tethered to the satellite itself.

To help make everything run more smoothly Seagate offers a free app for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch. The GoFlex Media app makes for an easy, user-friendly way to browse your media library by category or keyword search. To load to the Satellite, you can connect it to a computer like any other hard drive using USB.

Selling for a respectable $200 the GoFlex Satellite comes with a 3 year warranty and both wall and car chargers that while not in use can charge your USB compatible smartphone as well. Take a look at Seagate’s wheretobuy search to find one for yourself.

Tweet to win Baggu’s new Zips

Baggu continues to provide solutions to all our storage challenges with every new product the eco-friendly bag creates. The newest addition is a series of zippered bags in four different sizes and sundry colorways and patterns. Zips, as they’re called, keep anything you put in it secure, both at home and while roaming.

The set of three small ($8) or medium ($12) Zip bags are perfect for stashing make-up essentials, jewelry, travel toiletry bottles or the plethora of cords needed for all of our devices (which the bags can also hold), while the set of two large ($12) or single extra-large ($7) bags keep dirty shoes or laundry separated from the rest of your luggage in addition to simply holding anything else that needs protected.

The Baggu Zip collection sells online but we’re also giving four sets away to our readers. To enter, simply follow us on Twitter and tweet what you would put in your Zip before 9am EST on 4 November 2010. Be sure to include @coolhunting and #bagguzip so we can find your tweets.
