Automotive In-Car Media Storage - FAT32?

Options

‎06-27-2011 11:33 AM

Hello everyone.  I am looking into using this drive for plugging into my cars multimedia center.  Currently my car allows the use of USB HD's to pipe music through its system.  However, the drive has to be formatted in FAT32.  I know Seagate uses NTFS but I was thinking of reformatting it to FAT32.  I don't care for all the iPad/Android app features but I do want to be able to send/sync music to it wirelessly from my home network.  Is this feasible?

This is not the solution for you. They have no way of uploading data to it wirelessly. You have to connect it through USB to your PC to transfer files to it. They said maybe wireless transfering will be a feature "Down the Road".

You should probably look into a USB flash drive for that, or a regular GoFlex drive.
