I hope to get some insights from people who know the best way.
I am thinking of my next trip and I shoot a fair amount of 4K footage (about 30 GB/day). On my last trip, it was sheer agony - I brought a chromebook and used it to transfer my footage from my SD cards - it took hours to get it done every night and I lost a lot of sleep. I was thinking this time of using my Galaxy tablet to transfer the data to some 256 GB flash drives, but it might not be much faster. It wouldn't work with my 2 TB travel drives anyway since they're not independently powered. Something lightweight would be definitely preferable.
Around 20 years ago I used an X-Drive where you just insert the card and the whole contents are automatically copied over. These days it is woefully obsolete though. I have seen something like the WD My Passport Wireless Pro but honestly, it seems to have a number of negative reviews and I can't seem to find any alternatives.
Most likely I will need less than 250 GB of back up space and by the time it is filled up I can get some sort of PC access and copy over my data that way.
Does anybody have any convenient yet cost-effective solutions?
Thanks in advance.
