A: No. You can simply insert SD into a slot. While I have not played with this feature, it says there is an option to auto load (and delete, if you want) photos anytime an SD is loaded. Otherwise, the drive is simple drag and drop. Very easy to move files and if you want to show files on iPAD, there is a app that let's you do that wirelessly too....also, the drive can also create its own wireless wifi cloud as an option, so you do not need access to any other wifi to transfer files between your device and the drive.
Q: Will this work with pdf files from an ipad?
A: Unless you have a lot of PDFs on your iPad, PDFs don't generally take up a lot of space. However, you can move these PDFs to the external drive. A PDF is a universal file format, so they would be fine to move to an external drive.
A: I think you should be able to do the backup to a cloud drive if you tether the Passport Hard Drive to a desktop or laptop to do the actual transfer of data. The faster your network the more likely the transfer will work.
Q: Well this hard drive work on my iPad
A: No, this will not work with your iPad.
Q: Is device compatible with Windows10
A: It is compatible.
A: This hard drive will work with MacBooks.
