Is it possible to connect an external hard drive to a samsung galaxy tab 2?

Q. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and would like to connect my Seagate external 2TB to it. I have a OTG usb adapter which works fine with some usbs I tried using, but when connecting my hard drive to it the tablet says it is blank or unsupported.

If it is possible, what do I have to do? I'd prefer the option of just buying another accessory if possible, since doing the FAT32 formatting and such seems like a hassle (I have about 800gb of stuff I want to use and would rather not be limited to 32gb)

Thanks.

A. As it is Android so you will have to use it with FAT32 or FAT File System as Android doesn't support NTFS USB or Memory Card.You can Backup your things in PC or Laptop(Whichever you have) and Format the Hard Drive through the Tablet and then copy the contents and use
Sorry to say that you will have to do with whichever filesystem the Tablet uses

How to download or get music onto my tablet?
Q. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 tablet and I want to use it sometimes to listen to music. I have no idea how to get music on it to listen to like an mp3 player. I already have Pandora and iHeart Radio on it, but they need wifi for them.Please help?

A. it is not too hard. connect the tablet to your computer (the same cord you use to charge). go to "my computer" you will see SCH-i705 as a remote drive. open that. there you will have 2 folders, Card (if you have an SD card installed) and Tablet (internal memory). Open Tablet you will see a number of folders, open Music and now you can copy your MP3 music here. Once you have loaded your files, you can play them back using the Music Player App.

Original Question

Does it cost money to insert a new micro sd card on my tablet?
Q. I am looking to buy a Samsung Galaxy 2 7.0 tablet, but I don't k now if an 8 GB memory will be enough for me. I was researching and found that there is a slot on the side of the tablet to insert new cards. Meaning I could buy a 16 GB micro SD card and insert it. But, my dad warned me that It might cost money and require a plan with monthly fees. Is this True ? Please help me !

A. Simply changing a micro SD card to a larger capacity will only cost you what the card does. It has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with a plan, or monthly fee. It's NO different than upgrading the RAM in your computer. Hope this helps!
