Portable Storage Compatible with Almost Any Device

Doesn’t matter if you’re a legit photographer, avid selfie-taker, or hardcore TV series binge watcher – storage is something we always lack. It doesn’t make sense to lug around a laptop to back our data up, nor does it make sense to store our stuff in cloud drives, where downloading data across different devices can rake up a crazy phone bill.

Here’s where the storage saviour comes in – introducing the world’s first 4-in-1 mini hard drive that connects all your data to almost any device you have: the PhotoFast iType-C.

 

Get super light and portable storage

We’ve all been through that heartache when that “Not Enough Storage” alert decides to turn up when we’re going in for that sick shot that only graces us once. So when you’re on holiday taking that perfect Instaenvy-invoking image and your memory’s out – well, goodbye golden hour shot.

To save yourself from such heart wrenching pain, the iType-C gets you 64GB ($139) or 128GB ($189) of extra storage. So whether you’re into that 4K video life, take lots of pictures, or just have too many K-Dramas to keep up with, you’ll always be able to store and stream even the largest 4K video files. Biggest pro: its 17g weight is nothing compared to the weight of carrying a 2 kg laptop and your hard drive.

 

Plug and share to almost any device

AirDrop lets us transfer data from one Apple device to another, but it doesn’t expand our storage capability. The iType-C, on the other hand, lets us transfer data to almost any device out there – it’s compatible with iOS 7/8/9/10, Mac, Windows XP/7/8/10, and is supported on iPhone 5 and up, iPad Air/Air2/Mini/Pro, and iPod Touch 6.

Even sharing 4K videos from Apple to Android poses no problem – you’re loaded with USB C, lightning, USB 3.1 Gen 1, and Micro USB connections, so data transfers are super efficient.

You don’t have to worry about the ‘device is not supported’ warning either, because this baby’s got Apple MFi certification.

 

Back up important data on the go

 

For iOS devices, download the PhotoFast ONE app for functions like backup, data compression and encryption for top secret information.

For Android users, there isn’t even need for an extra app – the default File Manager’s got your back.

They even have shortcuts for app backups:

In short, you get to share, store, and backup your data without having Internet connection, perfect for when you’re switching up your old phone for a new one, so you don’t have to go through the ‘new phone, hu dis’ stage. For people who carry more than one mobile device along, you’ll have your data stored in one place, and get ready access across all your devices, regardless of operating software.  

 

Protect your data

 

Say you’ve got top secret information you don’t want to let prying eyes look at. You can protect your data with App lock, USB lock, and of course, good ol’ encryption. Read more about their security features here.

Bonus: 4K iReader

For our Android users, drone pilots, GoPro adventurers, and 360-cam enthusiasts, you can now send your works of art from your microSD card to your Apple device (both lightning and USB) without losing any quality.

The 4K iReader reads the data from your microSD, and allows you to transfer data to Apple devices without having to use your laptop. Like the iType-C, you get to password protect your data away from prying eyes. The reader will ignite a password prompt whenever it connects to a device – doesn’t matter whose microSD card it is. Just download the PhotoFast ONE app on App Store to get access to all these features for free when you use PhotoFast devices.

 

Extra storage that follows you anywhere

The times when we wished we had our hard drive with us is normal. That dreaded ‘Not Enough Storage’ message is the bane of our existence, and sometimes, no matter how many videos we delete off our phones, our storage still isn’t enough. If we have portable chargers for our ever-dying batteries, it only makes sense that we have portable storage for our over-capacity data. Bonus if it connects to a myriad of devices, especially ones with the elusive USB C port.

The iType-C (64GB@$139, 128GB@$189) and 4K iReader ($62.90 without microSD card, $79.90 with microSD card) are available at all Challenger and Nubox stores.
