External Hard Drive Mounted to Jailbroken iPad [Video]

Maxwell C. Shay demonstrates mounting an external hard drive to the iPad using the Camera Connection Kit in a new video posted to YouTube.

Unfortunately, it seems the iPad doesn't provide enough power through the dock connector to power the external drive. Shay uses a split USB cord to provide the additional power.

Take a look at the video below or hit the link for some lengthy instructions. Hopefully we will be able to bring these capabilities to you in a simpler form soon.
