If you have a jailbroken iPad, you're in luck. Through the use of the iPad Camera connection kit, it is possible to access external storage through the kit's USB or SD card slot. There are multiple ways to access the data stored on the external device, but the easiest way (so far) is using the Cydia app iFile.
To access your external data, attach the camera connection kit to the iPad and plug in your device. If you receive the error "The attached USB device is not supported" your device has mounted properly. Click the dismiss button and open iFile. At the root folder, browse to var -> mnt. This directory contains all of the external storage devices you have mounted. The default folder is typically mount1. Open the folder and you will have access to the documents, photos, movies, and music you have stored on the drive.
How do you know if your iPad is Jailbroken and how do you jailbreak if it is not?
