[Coco] An OFF THE WALL question..........

[Rietveld Rietveld]

U can also use a powered USB hub to connect the hard drive to the tablet. That will work for sure but it will need to be plugged in since the tablet won't be able to power the drive by itself

Another option is a 2556 gb SD that are reasonably cheap now

No size limitations but power limitations

The on the go may not be able to power the drive.   A solid state drive would be better

Hi everyone,
I've got kind of an "OFF THE WALL" question I need help with.
Recently I tried to hook up an Android Tablet to an external SATA 4TB HD (in a Dual SATA to USB Adapter I happen to have) using a OTG (or is it an OGT Cable) and the Android Tablet refused to connect. My question is this: Is there a size limitation (on an External HD using this method) that the Tablet (or Android) will support???
Thanks guys...
Joe...
