Are there external hard drives that can be plugged directly into a USB C slot without a cable or are there even Bluetooth external hard drives? To be honest, I don't want to deal with a tangled mess of cables, but I need a hard drive to install programs on.

Loading...Hey guys, I have an Intel Windows PC, 2-4 years old I think, and an external hard drive with 500GB RAM, so I would like to know if I can install games like Fortnite and all that on it and where I can see if it even loads onto the hard drive?
Hello, I would like to back up my movies and games to a data storage device. I've heard that SSDs need power after a certain amount of time, otherwise the data is lost. Is this the same for USB flash drives? – Thanks!
Hi, I have a Synology DS223 and several users with different permissions. Now, every user can see all the folders, even the ones they don't have access to (so they can't open them). However, I'd like to hide them as well to make things clearer. How do I do that? Thank you!
Hello. I want to format my 2TB HDD because I want to sell it. To prevent data from being recovered, it is recommended to choose a more complex formatting. The program offers the following options: Which one would you recommend or which option is sufficient?
Hello everyone, I'm very interested in PC security and hence my question, which I've read a lot about, how does it work with the well-known Gutmann method, overwriting 35 times? Some say it's necessary, others say it makes sense, but if it's unnecessary, why is it offered and is 35 times as secure or cannot…
Um, that’s all a little unprecedented. Of course you can buy Wi-Fi hard drives, search for them and you will find some.
But you can put cables really nice, so there’s no cable salad.
But only to the crisp point: if you install programs on an external WLAN hard drive, you will have to wait much longer when you start the programs than when you install them on your NVMe! Why? Because the ratio of WLAN hard disk speed to NVMe can also be 1:50! And that’s just the start! If you work with the programs from the Wi-Fi hard drive, then you’re going to spin in front of loud waiting!
Even if you connect the programs on an external hard drive with USB 3.0 cable, the ratio is still damn bad, about 1:15! So still really slow!
No tendency. Bluetooth would be too slow for data transmission and Wi-Fi now also rocks net. But at least go. It’s called NAS. However, this requires a small server which then offers the data storage via WLAN in the network. A small adapter solution would not be known to me.
About 10 years ago there were Medion PCs, such as Akoya E2040, who had a so-called on the top. Data port in which you could put a special external Medion USB hard drive. – There’s no such thing in my knowledge anymore.
Just build another internal hard drive in your PC.
I have a replacement frame in my PC and my motherboard has SATA with Hot Swap function.
Shut up, record in – and I can already use it
Bluetooth is slow af, don’t want a hard drive with bloodooth, believe me.
What you’re looking for is called “usb stick”.
With lexar bootit or other tools you can configure the usb stick so that it is not recognized in windows as an interchangeable drive, but as a normal running gear.
Kingston DataTraveler Max or something.
Otherwise you can use a nas.
But probably there is also the problem with the data speed at usb sticks or with mur 100mb/s
Well, there’s the one with 1gbit/s and more.
In practice, the biggest factor is to start programmes, etc. The latency, i.e. the time the storage medium needs to look for the file.
