    Not a silly question.

    But unless the HDD has a built in driver for bluetooth, I can't see this happening. At present, I am not aware of any HDD that is bluetooth enabled.

    And this is rightly so. Bluetooth is a method of serial communication and painfully slow. To copy a file, it will take large time. Bluetooth is alright for small files, photos (small size), v-cards, etc.

    wifi enabled HDDs will be costlier if they will be around.

    and I doubt using external HDDs when there are 256GB flash drives.

    that will be too slow method of sharing...

    i dont know how speedy will that be to transport data via bluetooth..


    but this possiblity is credential.
    same happens with a nokia phone attached to the computer using nokia suite.. there must be appropriate software for that... and its possible..

    wifi would be a better safe and faster version of wiresless data sharing..

    without considering speed issues, Is it possible to make WIFI or Bluetooth HDD at home?

    At home? Definitely not.

    And I doubt if anyone will make Blue tooth HDD, commercially, that is.

    BTW. Many people must have seen the ad about LG Scarlet TV with bluetooth. The ad shows that the girl clicks to send her photo from her phone(?) to the TV and it appears on the TV instantly later. Well .... Good luck with that.
