You can buy portable hard drive gadgets but they are not very cheap.
Have a look at buying some more memory cards .... They can be found a lot cheaper
Yes there are loads of photo storage devices, different capacities. Have a look at warehouse express. They cost about as much as a decent laptop though!
Surely it would be cheaper and save a great deal of weight/space to buy a spare CF card or two
I did think that too....you can get a 4GB Sandisk Extreme III for about £17.99
Sorry to resurrect this thread but after seeing the cost of the epson 3000 etc. I thought there was no option but taking the chance with multiple CF cards when away travelling to keep images safe.
I did a bit of searching and came across this product http://www.cbadigital.co.uk/photobank.htm which although doesn't have any viewing capabilities does seem to have a pretty good size/capacity ratio for just backing up cards to keep the images safe?
Before splashing out has anyone got any experience of this bit of kit and can either recommend/or not?
Although I do suppose that for the amount of storage you get, that piece of kit is a bit cheaper than cards.
I've never used that sort of thing myself and although I think I'd rather have extra cards, I can sort of see its appeal. Just need to be careful you don't loose it or drop it down the toilet or something other disaster.
Hence why I posted the question as 60gb storage for £69 seemed a pretty good deal and actually about the same as buying multiple cards, agree with the dropping it issue though!!!!!
16 gig CF card from 7DayShop?
