Can I have people walk up with a usb thumb drive? Does anyone know if this one or any others do such a thing?

Unfortunately, no. Since this device supported USB, I thought it would do exactly what you want but it doesn't. :-(

Question for all - does anyone know if the micro USB supports reading/copying of files from a thumb drive? If appears from the other responses that there are a number of ways to move files onto the Nexus 10. However, I have an application that would require me to copy files from physical media. This is supported from the Samsung Galaxy tab through their micro-USB. If anyone has an answer, would appreciate your input.

You can add an external USB drive for 25 and up. Get good quality. Easy plug & play.

I don't see why not. I agree with Patrick - it's just like a giant flash drive and doesn't depend on an operating system.

umm im honestly not sure iv never done or even thought of partitioning a usb drive for more then one partition. i would just try it out the worst that can happen is it doesn't work but you still have a thumb drive haha

I don't think there's a way to replace the memory on the USB device without cracking it open. I believe the idea was just to have a convenient last ditch storage device for a Powerpoint or whatever without having to carry around an extra thumb drive.

I have the same problem. I am on able to use my Sam's card although my thumb drive works fairly well. It's clearly a downside of that product.

Yes you can. However, it might not if you format the thumb drive to a different format. e.g. FAT32 versus NTFS or whatever?

Yes you should be able to move USB Thumb drive data to SD Card with the device

None. You can buy an external USB drive or share a drive from another computer. We use our portable for that purpose.

Yes but my docs won't use it and my first one failed and no none would cover a replacement.Can you use Excel? Buy a cheap samll thumb drive and do your own.

It's not a plug in play solution. Yes you will have to set it up. The good news is that it's been done before and documented online. Some simple linux commands, copying and pasting and you'll should be able to get it up and running. You may need to tweak some settings in order to get it running right. So it may be some what of a learning process. The link to the blog I use is below.http://jeremyblythe.blogspot.com/2012/06/motion-google-drive-uploader-and.html

Yes. Typical USB thumb drive. I've used it on my PC, laptop, and other peoples equipment as well. Plug it in and it will load software automatically so it can run on your laptop. Wait for that to finish and it will be ready. Pop up should appear saying something like "View files" or whatever the standard saying is. Or you can click Start and then Computer and you will see a list of all your drives. When it is ready (when the computer recognizes it) it will be available to open and load files on it.

move some files to a small flash drive such as: Patriot Spark 64 GB (USB 3 and very tiny)

it comes with a wireless thumb drive not a USB port to plug into your computer. My husband is the one who uses it and he has not connected to the computer to keep track of his data

No, I purchased this unit for that purpose and it didn't work. I could see and read files from the USB drive but could not save files to the drive. The problem seemed to be that it was so slow the write failed due to time out, not permissions.

Yes you can except, you need use one that does not require power, some uSB Drives require more power and won't work. U can use the micro sd or the regular SD card, it should work fine.
