iPad Pro I know you can connect a USB C SSD to it but how does it work once you do that? (Video Playback)

I hate having another cord too but oh well.

So is it possible to easily play the video files on my SSD in nPlayer Plus or Infuse Pro?

Do I have to copy them first to the apps ? Hope not.

Yes, you can play direct, no copy with nPlayer. Not sure on Infuse.

Thanks.

One last question do you know if a iPad Pro can handle/power a Hard Drive instead of a SSD ? I know people would recommend a SSD if I am bringing it out and about.

Main reason about just thinking about a hard drive instead with usb c is because I could get a greater size easily.

You can play directly via Infuse, too.

Is it possible to have a power bank and a USB C Hard Drive or SSD connected to a iPad Pro at the same time? If so how?

Sure.

This is one if the smaller and cheaper hubs I've found with PD passthrough. No USB-C data port though. You can find more expensive hubs if you want that feature.

Thanks the only thing I am worried about is hitting it and having the port plug break off into the iPad Pro.

Can you connect a PowerBank to the Magic Keyboard and the SSD to the port?

Can you connect a PowerBank to the Magic Keyboard and the SSD to the port?

Probably? I don’t have a Magic Keyboard.

Can you connect a PowerBank to the Magic Keyboard and the SSD to the port?

This is something I do often… however, I don’t really use portable battery pack to plug into the Magic Keyboard (only via power outlet). That way I can use the iPad port to plug my headphones or a SSD… having a Magic Keyboard is a clever way to add a port without the use of a hub.

I‘m really hoping Apple expand on the capabilities of the Magic Keyboard for next generation iPad Pro, perhaps adding two USB-C ports!

Thank you.

I would like to see this too.
