1) The original cable that comes with the GT 2 7" will allow you to connect to a PC via USB 2. You can also connect via KIES Air (Samsung app) to your PC via wifi.

2) For extreme external storage capacity I use a Seagate STAK-100 with two SATA bays for Seagate Goflex 2.5" drives as well as one USB 2 port for any other make of harddrive. This doc station is connected directly to my router. With my free Pogoplug account (pogoplug.com) this gives me free cloud storage to my own drives. I can access all my data from anywhere in the world via the Android app or through the Web browser. Note not that great for streaming video but you can download it to your device to play then delete it when done. It also supports Auto backup of your pictures / contacts on your device to your cloud storage. I have one 500 gig and one 750 gig drive plugged into it. One dedicated to software, ebook collection and music and the other is dedicated to photos. There are other manufacturers that create Pogoplug Docking stations. Check it out. If they don't have a client app for your OS you can still access your drives via a Web browser. One other note. For your local LAN PC's you can map your drives to them - no client software required.
