New to iPad

[CrazyTrance]

Hello, recently I just got the new iPad 3 wifi + 4G and 64GB and have the MediaDevil crystal clear screen protector and OtterBox Defender case on the way. I figured joining would be a good way for me to learn about some of its features as currently Im an android user (Galaxy Nexus). I also have an iPod classic and a 64GB iPod touch so I'm not a 100% noob to the software but I can always learn more.

Basically I'm looking to find if it's possible to hook up a hard drive to this and play music through iTunes off the external storage. Ive heard of a way using a SeaGate GoFlex drive (which i happen to have all my music on anyways for easy transportation) so ill be looking into that. Anyways, thanks!
