The good: The G-Technology G-Connect works as a portable drive or a NAS server with a built-in wireless router that supports five iOS devices for media streaming via a mobile app.
The bad: The G-Connect is confusing to use and is so far behind its competition in terms of features.
The bottom line: The G-Technology G-Connect is a try-hard portable/wireless storage device that doesn't achieve much in the end.
