The worst part of this procedure is that IвЂ™ve encountered pauses during the transfer, when the screen of my smartphone went in Sleep Mode. So, for the rounded figures, I need 10 minutes to transfer 100 photos that use 1,5 Gb of storage. Knowing that, we observe only slight difference in speed between the 4 SD cards. ItвЂ™s quite clear there is a difference in speed between the 2 USB sticks. The only cases where the transfer time was less than 10 minutes were when I have used the new USB stick from SanDisk.

In this test, I had to transfer 95 JPEG files that took 1.25 Gb of space, or 95 JPEG files that go from 10,2 Mb the smallest to 15,3 Mb the largest, resulting an average size of 12,75 Mb. Also, we could have different results if we transfer 1 file of 1 Gb instead of 100 files that make 1 Gb in total, or if we use an external HDD, or even an SSD.Д«ut this test is very relevant to the type of situation I will probably deal with when travelling as a photographer, wanting to securely back up my photo files using the most compact gear and probably the cheapest solution. There are many factors that could affect the transfer speed and the most obvious in those tests are the type of USB stick and the speed of each SD card.

In the test I have used 4 ordinary SD cards as described here: This data is transferred to USB sticks from different SD card, using RAVPOWER FileHub. There are 95 JPEG files for a total of 1,25 Gb of data.

ItвЂ™s a small device that can be controlled wirelessly via your smartphone, or your PC and acts also as an external battery and a wireless router.ДЄfter installing the FileHub Plus App and configuring the FileHub, I have transferred the photos that I took with Fujifilm X-Pro2, JPEG only, FINE quality, 24 MP during one day of the last weekend. This is the solution I was exploring recently and IвЂ™ll try to show the tests IвЂ™ve made and the impressions I had using this backup option.ДЇirst, the RAVPOWER FileHub RP-WD03 is a compact gadget that is the essential part of this kit. But on the cheaper side, we could also use a small USB stick.

As I fill the much smaller SD card in Slot 1 and change it with another formatted one, I make sure that everything I shoot go also on the huge SD card in Slot 2.ДЄnother option would be to transfer the files to a different storage, safely, like an external HDD (or a more expensive SSD). The simplest way would be to get a 256 Gb SD card and insert it into Slot 2 of my Fujifilm X-Pro2 camera, with the menu setting switched to вЂњBackupвЂќ. So I thought it would be great to know how I could properly back-up my photos, while travelling, without carrying extra heavy / voluminous gear. More freedom is good for photography and I think the path to more freedom is simplifying the process as much as possible. As I feel we consume a lot of our very limited spare time on post-processing our photos, archiving them, sharing them on social networks, then what we have left for the actual very enjoyable process of capturing those images? I love to photograph! I may find the time to deal with my old photo files, later, but when I travel and I am in a beautiful location, I feel itвЂ™s a chance that I have to grab and I need to make the best of it. This is my first cheap & compact solution for photo backup while travelling without a laptop, or a tablet.
