[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1625855"] Assuming navydad's son is in the USN (he said "Navy" not "Royal Navy" or "RN" so I'll got with it) the submarine goes to sea with a large library of movies for the crew, but if he wants his son to have a library of his own, the questions about his son's device are key. WiFi or Cellular or any other radio communications are out. Radio waves don't travel through water very far (inches, at the frequency of WiFi and cellular), WiFi is limited range and Cellular is a only a bit better. Oh, and the hull is steel, which is a pretty effective blocker of signals as well. So we have to know what device his son has that might use a USB stick. And movies take ton of space, so any solution will need to be LARGE capacity. [/QUOTE]
