SanDisk Connect Wireless Stick 64 GB Review

It seems like this year the portable media market has exploded.  With smart phones becoming more dominant the demand for mobile storage solutions is massive.  Enter the SanDisk Connect Wireless Stick.  A USB storage device that doubles as a wireless media server sounds intriguing.  

Let’s take a closer look!

The latest generation of SanDisk Connect Wireless Stick is available in sizes from 16GB up to a massive 200GB and is offered in both the black you see here and in a white.  The slim design is about the height of two USB ports and roughly 3 inches long.  It reminds me a bit of some of the first generation flash drives but it is still comfortably pocket sized.
