Patriot today announced the next generation in its ecosystem of wireless storage solutions, the AERO wireless mobile hard drive. The AERO is a mobile storage solution that allows you to take your full media collection on the go and stream to any tablet, smartphone, or laptop.

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 Patriot Connect Application also suports 3rd party media player Apps to break free from proprietary file formats. It also features an internet pass through access point, allowing multiple devices to share one IP connection while accessing data.

The AERO mobile hard drive is shipping in early April, with an MSRP of $199.99 for 1TB capacity and $159.99 for 500GB capacity.
