Have an IPAD Pro with software version 13.2.3 and use this to get my RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark IV. When back from a trip I download them into my MAC to verify with LR and or adjustment. After update Apple there is now a folder on my Ipad "Files" were I like to transfer my camera RAW files too and like to know if you can transfer these RAW files back towards a SSD . If possible and one of you have experiences what do I need to make it possible?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

I’m unclear about what you mean by “back towards a SSD”. You can connect and external disk drive and copy files from the iPadPro to that.
How are you getting the files from the iPadPro to the Mac now?

I mean from my Ipad, when downloaded and corrected to a SSD for storage Reason.
I cannot direct download from my camera to the SSD and want to verify them first as well.
via this way I can avoid to bring a laptop with me and use only a lighter and smaller Ipad but space on my Ipad is limited when you travel for 4 weeks and have photos in Raw.

Files from my Ipad to my Mac is direct with the cable which is not an issue.

Here is what I use to connect to my iPadPro
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07N2NQYZ2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1I import from the camera to Lightroom. Then make a second copy to iDiskk. At home, I can connect the iDiskk to the computer and transfer the RAW file to a backup location.
I use Lightroom on the iPad to sync the same RAW files to my desktop via the Adobe cloud. Once these files have been sync'd to the cloud, I can delete them from the iPad. NOTE: do not use the iPadOS Photos app as it make a copy of the files if you import from the camera to the iPad using Photos. then if you import from the camera roll to the Lightroom app, you get a second copy stored on the iPad.

I have 512GB iPadPro so I have a little more wiggle room before I need to clean up my iPadPro storage. My Nikon Z7 NEFs are 45-50mb per file
