I continue to slowly spool up on learning my way around my recently acquired TRS-80 Model III.
The Gotek drive is a really great thing. However, using sneaker-net to transfer disk images from PC to Gotek is a bit tiresome.
I just stumbled across a thing called a "Wifi USB stick", with the Sandisk Connect being an example. This sounds perfect. Has anyone tried one of these? I get the idea that it basically turns your USB stick into a tiny NAS.
But reviews are mixed. People say that the Wifi capability is no longer supported by Sandisk so it it just an expensive USB drive. I note that it is USB 2.0 only. And I'm not finding any other products like it at the moment.
Has anyone used a gadget like this, that they can recommend? Or is there some other alternative to sneakernet?
Thanks,
Brad
