I'm absolutely flabbergasted that every external drive company out there isn't working on integrated solutions for this. People who love photography need it but now with drones becoming so popular it's even more of a necessity
Just watching this and giggling with relief.. First, good to hear I am not the only one lugging around tons of photo/video gear, but second and most important, I can lose the laptop! Very well organized and informative, thank you for sharing!
It would be a great asset to travellers if one device can have following features- 1 backup to bigger drive or a drive in itself 2 a power bank (they already have either battery or a charger). 3. Wifi router with facility to insert a sim. The present device would need just an ssd type drive, a little more powerful battery and a slim slot to do all these things.
I ended up here because I was watching a video called “how to move photos from SD card to iPad Pro” now if you don’t have a laptop and just have a desktop and an iPhone. The iPad is an amazing choice…yeah it’s 1k+ especially if you get the cellular iPad which can also act as a hotspot and many awesome things…but mainly you can easily just do all your editing work on the iPad / back ups as well on the go and it’s light weight. Awesome video! Didn’t need this info but you did great 😁👍🏽
I found this immensly helpful as it answers my question (re: back up SD card on Android) & has the solution I was looking for. I've been on the web a good portion of the day researching multiple sites but hadn't found a straightforward answer. Or the articles were so outdated as to be obsolete. I'm not tech savvy and am easily embarrassed at having to ask how to questions on what should be glaringly obvious (or is obvious to most people) I hope that makes sense. Thank you so much, you've saved me a lot of time and frustration!! Subbed. Take care!!
Just got the RP-WD009 and wish I had this a few years ago when I took holiday in Hawaii! For those that take a lot of GoPro and other video capture to microSD cards and have no interest in lugging a full-size laptop out into the field this is great solution. Use it to offload all your media files from microSD card to a 1 TB Samsung USB SSD drive at the press of a button! Ultra portable as well. Can be downloading files while you hike, fly or drive! Cheers, #SeattleRingHunter
you can use your smarphone and a USB hub + card reader. connect an external SSD to the hub, the card reader and card, your phone, use a file app, done. you don't need an $85 device. the hub + a reader, or a hub with reader will run around $25.
best video explanation on this topic. I use to have this Sony file-hub-wifi style of thing many years ago. Try to look up for new update for usb 3 speed. Thank you
I don't use a computer too while traveling especially. I use a phone and a USB-C OTG adapter to copy to the external SSD drive. Please do check out my photo backup video too at ua-cam.com/video/43yqHZikAmg/v-deo.html
Why not just connect the camera straight to the Android phone, why bother taking out the SD card and buying a SD reader? However for my own case I'm not really looking to backup I'm looking to MOVE the files to a harddrive, so that I can free up the space on my camera, those Intra 4k 10bit videos fills up my SD cards so quickly, would have been great to be able to move them to a small harddrive everytime that happens without having a laptop, but I guess the problem is that there will never be a 1-button backup solution for my case because you'd have to view and verify the transfer before you could dare to delete them from the camera.
Thanks a lot for the demo, this is exactly what I was looking for! Although I would reconsider the process you described at 6:55 where you delete old folders. It has a small risk of data loss when you at some point inadvertently deleted images when using the camera or files got corrupted on the SD card. Proposal: Instead swap SD cards after each backup (e. g. one SD card per day) so every timestamped folder is individual.
I have a suitable iPad and use it with a USB-C hub that has a SD card reader and a couple of USB3 ports. I use an app called FE to transfer files from SD to HDD. One point to note is that the HDD needs to be formatted to an iPadOS writable format. I have used exFAT. NTFS is read only on an iPad. My reason for using exFAT is that it's read/writeable on Windows. If you are an Apple only user choose their standard HDD format.
Update re Apple I bought a powered multi usb / card reader. Cheap. iphone: now has file management. Mine does not. ipad: My v9 does allow file management and two file folders to be open at the same time. But it struggled with speed and multi files. Each 18Mb file (Canon CRAW) took seconds per file and required file by file copying. The RavPower sounds like a better option.
@@everfree198102 I've been looking in to this. But can't find a solid answer. So my android can't handle 2 devices plugged in at once with a Kiwibird OTG connecter (that has a USB for my HDD and an SD card slot), so a hub would then work?
@@droneographyworld8775 i am using anker usb type c hub which I bought from amazon on my Galaxy Zfold 3. Both sd card and portable hard drive works fine at the same time.

I have been facing this problem for years, finally I found something useful. Very informative video. Wish I had found this video earlier. Now with 2021 almost to an end, I believe there must be some tablets(both on iOS and Android) that support transfer of photos from SD cards to external hard disks, but I really haven't found anything useful. iOS is still very restrictive in the kind of functionalities it allows and considering price of iPads, very curious to know if any cheaper Android tablets support this transfer. I am seriously planning to buy the cheapest tablet which allows this transfer and occasional editing of these RAW files while I am on a trip.
Interesting. You still need to upload to the cloud. I take my iPad Pro with a C USB hub with an SD card reader. I can plug in the hub and the card into the hub, select my images, pull them over to the external drive, and within a minute all images are backed up. Later I connect to my Amazon drive and it backs up my images. I need a solution like the gnarbox that backs up automatically and let’s me preview the images, just not for $6-p to $900.
The WD My Passport Wireless is only rated about 2.5 out of 5 stars on the Best Buy website. I offload my short videos to my iPad Mini 5 via a Lightning-to-SD card reader ($33 at Best Buy). Then transfer from my iPad Mini 5 to an iXpand (Flash drive) with USB and Lightning connectors. iXpand 256GB is $73, 128GB is $50, 64GB is $37 which I use and 32GB is $22. Might be an extra step but works for me.
I am surprised by the lack of and price of this type of product, I purchased my "Verbatim SmartDisk 40gb Photobank PB40" back in 2007 for a couple hundred dollars that has a SD & CF card slots with a backlit LCD screen, I would have figured there would have been more of this type product out by now. For a product that came out almost twenty years ago, it seems quite advanced. With short road trips & higher capacity SD card over the years, I didn't see as much a need for such a device, but now looking at longer road trips it seems I have a need for such a device again, recently begin looking into another device that's where I found off of Amazon "NewQ Filehub AC750 Travel Router" which appears to be the same product that you have reviewed with a different brand name.
Great video! Just subscribed. I think I will create a NMVe 1TB drive and pair with the iPhone and RavPower. Have you done any speed tests of how long it takes to transfer files, say like a full 64GB card? Would using an SSD speed up the transfer, or is the USB interface a bottleneck that would mean a cheaper HDD would be just as fast? Is the ISB port a USB 2 or USB 3? Finally, can you charge the RavPower at the same time as it is transferring, so that transfer could happen overnight and still have a full battery charge the next morning?
Great video was referred to you by another video friend. Question for you Todd on the RavPower hub does the SD "copy" over or does it transfer all the content over to the storage device then leaving your SD card blank? Thanks
I just came back from Japan and ran into that problem of bringing alaptop to ingest my footage onto a drive everyday. Do you still recommend the RavPower in 2023 and is there anything that is better today? I was thinking maybe something similar with a USB-C but im not sure if something like that exists. Black Fridays around the corner and so im hoping i can get this on sale. Currently at 79.90 on amazon ($20 more shockingly since this video). Thanks for the video!
Great video. Thanks! The Inateck Micro USB Card Reader for Android is no longer available. Are you aware of a comparable device, or, what I would be looking for in order to be able to connect SD card to portable drive using Androie (Pixel) phone?
I don’t think the network it creates is any more private within a hotel than going direct to the hotel WiFi. You can snoop the wired network as easily as you can the wireless one. The only way it’s private is that the connection over WiFi to your rav device is passworded so others can’t use it. But going out over Ethernet from the device to the main router of the hotel, your traffic will look the same as if you had plugged in your computer or whatever directly.
Agreed. I tried to make that point when talking about the Gnarbox 2, for it provides a whole solution for content creators on the go. But if backing up SD cards is all someone needs, there are more affordable options.
Wish they'd make a cheaper one without router which I find to be useless and to slow. Just easier to connect, upload and be done. Lacie makes one with sd card slot, it's the raid pro but wish they had a ssd version that wasn't like a grand ( rugged boss pro)
Thank You for your Outstanding Video... so helpful.... But it is IMPOSSIBLE to Purchase it anywhere right now ... is the NewQ Filehub AC750 Travel Router the same ??? please
Editing on the Filehub doesn't work because it doesn't have enough power to do the job. When it markets itself as a media SERVER that means you can stream media wirelessly to your devices - and for that it works great. This use case is not a failure of the device, but rather, a case of the device not being used as intended. When you add to that the fact that it costs 4 to 5 times less than the other products you mention, I think waiting to edit at home is a worthwhile tradeoff. If you need to edit in the go, I guess one of the others will work better for you, but otherwise I think the Filehub is the superior solution - and much more versatile too.
ifimustimust 💯 It’s funny, because RavPower is primarily marketing the device as a media server, when in fact the SD card backup is arguably its best feature.
The file management on the iPad is terrible. It breaks, doesn't show progress, when it fails you don't know how, and the "select all feature" to copy doesn't work.
Hi Todd! I don't now if you still check comments on this video, but I try to ask you anyway. Will the mobilephone (Samsung Galaxy S20) really be able to deliver enough power to run an external harddrive?
Since the iPhone and iPad version of Lightroom is cloud based, couldn’t you just use the Apple SD card reader to upload/backup your images to the Lightroom cloud?
So with the Rav....if I don’t own a laptop would it still make sense? If I’m hearing you correct I can back up my whole trip using the Rav-hard drive, and then using the app I can go back into my see what’s in hard drive and download a few videos at a time to edit on my phone? I want to avoid using a laptop all together
7:00 - how do you KNOW they're just duplicates? seriously - how can you actually tell? it's just a bunch of numbers in the file name and no data that i can see?
I have another question, do you have to have internet access in order to use the app? also another question, does it clear your SD Card after you are done transferring?
Does the rav power work no matter how sd card is formatted? Having issues with a dash cam card not being read on my laptop I guess because of how it’s formatted. Thanks for any advice
Great information thanks but regarding using iPad is not working, I have iPad Pro 2021 and the USB port but transferring is not working , I need to save the pictures first on the iPad then move them to the external hard drive
Why not just format the SD card every time after you back up the content, that way you will not have every time the same content on the back up folder, also you make space on the SD card.
It's a bit quirky but still a great product. The biggest problem, three years later, is that the company app doesn't support newer phone operating systems. Just upgraded my phone and can't install the Rav FileHub app on it. The company confirmed they are not releasing newer versions for newer phones. Not a happy camper ☹. Any solutions?
For the RavPower FileHub can the data be transferred the otherway? I'm thinking of a way to moved on SD card to another without need to use the computer
I am a touring cyclist who films with 3 cameras, gopro cannon and a drone a lot of memory needed. 2 years ago I took a laptop and two external 1 terabyte drives. Enough storage but instead of putting the files into folders i simply loaded them in thinking the storage device would sort and folder each download. It took a long time to separate all the footage into the proper folders. This year lesson learned i put everything in folders in the laptop before putting them into the storage device. But now looking for a device to cut out the laptop there are many problems extra weight is the main , some laptops cannot be charged in a tent through powerbanks mine included and they just take up too much space so i will look at the ravpower if this can folder at the proper date for each device then it will work for me It would be even better if you could name them as well can that be done on the rav device app?

But now looking for a device to cut out the laptop there are many problems extra weight is the main , some laptops cannot be charged in a tent through powerbanks mine included and they just take up too much space so i will look at the ravpower if this can folder at the proper date for each device then it will work for me It would be even better if you could name them as well can that be done on the rav device app?
instead of a SD card, can plug my insta360 go 2? because it only has an internal memory. thanks
If I try to use the Inateck Micro USB Card Reader solution I mean.
My memory card is formatted how do I get my things back
Thanks a lot!!!!
Just remember Portable HD + RavPower + SD Card + Power bank = unlimited power

Do you know if it is compatible with an XQD memory card from a Nikon Z6 camera?
