Hi
When I travel I take an old netbook (Windows 7) and an external portable drive (Lacie Rugged USB no mains) to back up my Raw images I've shoot (over trip can be more than 200GB of images). I download images (from CF and SD cards) to the netbook then copy them to the external portable drive then reuse the cards. Works fine but netbook heavy, only used to backup and occasionally view images (not that important). I always take my iPad & iPhone.
To give me a cloud backup my first thought was to start using LR CC to back up images on my travels still using the netbook and external drive but was wondering if it's possible to use an iPad instead of the netbook. So is there a way to copy CF & SD cards via the iPad to the external drive and also upload to LR CC cloud ? I might not have internet access some/all of the time, limited space on the iPad hence needing to copy to external hdu.
Hope that makes sense, thanks.
PS so pleased this forum is still here
