Patriot has just announced a new addition to is lineup of storage devices called the AERO. The AERO is a device that comes in either 1TB or 500GB variants that can be used as storage for users who are on the move regularly, travelling with devices that are low on internal storage.

Load up, go mobile, and share. With the ever expanding tablet and smartphone landscape, the AERO is the definitive mobile storage solution that allows you to take your full media collection on the go and stream to any tablet, smartphone, or laptop. The Patriot AERO truly lets you share content to your mobile devices like never before, even if you don’t have access to the internet or cloud storage.

The AERO comes with a companion App for iOS and Android that turns the AERO into a media hub, allowing access to any number of stored Photos, Music, and Files on the go. It comes with 3rd party media player support to theoretically support any media file format, together with an Internet pass-through feature to browse the internet using a single IP address.

Create the ultimate entertainment hub in the palm of your hand. Using the free Patriot Connect App, available on Google Play, Apple App Store, and the Amazon Appstore, the AERO can wirelessly connect and stream high definition content simultaneously to 5 tablets or smartphones

The AERO supports WiFi b/g/n with the capacity to connect up to 5 devices. It also offers USB 3.0 connectivity and up to six hours of life on rechargeable battery.
