Hi I have a Lumia 930

Love it and have everything I really need on it Although I do have lots that might be nice to see on my phone. I have a normal hard drive.

1) Will I be able to see the files on my phone if I get a cable?
2) If not will I on windows 10?

I have also seen these portable media readers (Kingston 5-in-1 Mobile Companion)which you can wirelessly use on your phone. None that I have seen work with windows phone.This would be amazing it is even a wifi hotspot.
But they need an app and there isn't one for windows phone yet. You can use it through the internet but it is not as nice.

3) Finally does anyone know if there are any that are compatible with windows phone or will be soonish?

I have so many photos and films hopefully I can find something so that I can take them everywhere with me.

and yes when you connect your phone to a pc, you will see it as a drive
 
HI thanks if I got one of them would I need to download a specific app on my phone?

I currently own one and obviously I have a wp :p but no apps needed :) They do have an official app for ios and android, but none for wp and aren't planning to make one for now (I mailed them), but you can use your browser, navigate to a specific address (10.10.10...) and do everything from there :) I have connected a usb stick to it and was able to access my docs, but haven't tried any media yet. Nonetheless the device works for us xd
