The Prepper Disk is a self-contained offline knowledge device designed for emergency preparedness, off-grid living, and remote travel.

It's built for preppers, homesteaders, outdoor professionals, and anyone who values self-reliance.

Nope! The Prepper Disk works like a local hotspot, it creates a small, private wi-fi signal that you connect directly to in order to browse the websites it contains.

Never. Your device is yours to use forever, no fees and no subscriptions needed.

Updates

When you buy a Prepper Disk it includes a web console that lets you get new versions of content (like Wikipedia, iFixit, our exclusive Prepper Disk tools, etc.) whenever they are available, for free.

Updates are always free!

While we encourage users who are comfortable to do so, because of the variables this introduces to your device (choices in content, capacity, etc.) we cannot offer detailed technical support for this path. There are, however, many online resources that can help as well as folks in the IIAB community.

If you are interested in this path, email us at support@prepperdisk.com with your serial # and we will provide custom instructions for your device.

Upgrades (Content Packs)

About once a year, we release brand new content and features, like licensed videos or eBooks, new apps like our Morse Code and Language Translator, or other improvements.

These upgrades are available for purchase as a discounted SD card.

Setup takes about two minutes.

1. Plug the device into the included power adapter or a USB-C battery
2. Wait 60 seconds for the device to boot
3. Using the phone, tablet, or computer you wish to view content with, connect to the "PrepperDisk" wifi network
4. Scan the QR code using that device, or open a browser and navigate to http://10.10.10.10

Yes! Using the included web console, you can download content in your language.

Not all content is available in all languages but (for example) Wikipedia is available in dozens of languages including : Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, French, Arabic, Bengali, Portuguese, Russian, Urdu, Indonesian, German, Japanese, Nigerian Pidgin, Marathi, Telugu, Turkish, Tamil, Yue Chinese, and Vietnamese.

Prepper Disk provides searchable, browsable versions of some of the Internet's most vital websites. You interact with it just like the "normal" Internet. It isn't a hard drive, it is a web server pre-loaded with popular sites.


Unlike a hard drive, you can :

Connect multiple devices simultaneously to the device - up to 20 with our premium unit
Browse, search, bookmark, and navigate these sites like you normally would on the Internet
Connect from any tablet, phone, computer etc. with no special drivers or cables needed. Your device connects to the private wifi network the Prepper Disk creates.

Absolutely, we recommend it.

Any MicroSD imaging utility will allow you to make a backup and store the image or make a backup SD card.

On Windows, we recommend Win32DiskImager. On Mac we recommend ApplePiBaker v2.

The Prepper Disk works with virtually any modern device that has a web browser — phones, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers.

Domestic orders typically arrive within 3–5 business days. International shipping varies by destination.
