Hello all out there
I am wondering what you may be using to dump your memory cards to if you require portable ... "not laptop", storage.
The reason I ask is that I have just purchased a small unit (3" x 4.5" x .75") with a 80gb hard drive.
It takes most cards known to man and will dump a 1gb cf card in less than 10 minutes.
The unit comes under a few names (this one is, DC Partner).
I have seen the same branded as "DigiMate"
You can buy the unit without 2.5" hard drive and fit your own, but I decided to simply buy the 80GB version.
Here in Australia it cost me $256 delivered; and I thought that was cool.
Does anyone use one of these or something like it and care to share their experiences ?
By the way, this is a storage only device, no pic viewing screen... only indicates status.
My reason for using this unit is.... 3 x 1gb CF cards and rotate between what is in the camera and what is being downloaded. "1 is for backup"
Cheers
