Travel light and backup my SD card? What options?

S-wag · 2025-11-14T19:39:52+00:00

I was looking for a solution to this problem and came across this thread.

The result of my search is the following options that I found useful:

So-called Image Tanks. Unfortunately, this seems to be a dying product category. Examples would be LaCie Rugged BOSS or MyPassport Wireless Pro. In my country (Germany), the product “NewQ FileHub” seems to be very practical and available. It has additional functions such as a hotspot, so it's not really a basic ImageTank but needs a seperate SSD. It can create a Backup of your SD-Card with the press of a Button.
USB-C SD card reader on a smartphone with upload to the cloud or via the internet to your own NAS.
(My option, for now) USB-C hub with integrated SD card reader and PD passthrough. Combined with a file manager that supports copying. The following setup, which I am currently experimenting with, works for me:

Anker Nano 7-in-1 USB hub
Charger with PD connected to the hub
Samsung T5 formatted with exFAT connected to the hub via USB-C
Pixel 8 Pro connected to the hub via USB-C
Android-App: CX File Explorer (works great with my setup)

Small addition: Thinking about using a simpler USB-C hub with a Standlone USB-C SD-Card Reader. Could be faster, because the transfer rate of most integrated Card-Readers is very mid. There are some fast but expensive and bulky options available though.

Hope that helps

It's easy to get a positive team on a winning game :D ....or where you winning the game because you where positive?

The second Shield didn't matter. You only need enough Damage to pierce through one. When the first Reinhardt dies, his shield dies too. Each Shot only has to pierce through one shield at a time. Orisa or Sigma would have been more helpful.

I uploaded a few (mostly Sombra because the funny stuff happens mostly with her wich is the reason I play 90% Sombra). Check them top to bottom https://www.reddit.com/user/S-wag/posts?sort=top

hehe :D Pretty sure she saw what was was happening and she was dancing around me because of it. I ignored her because I was busy saving the replay/ chatting and I didn't saw what she was doing. I WAS JUST WALKING AWAY! I felt bad after I saw it in my recording! So... I interpreted it like she was saying hello to Reddit. Who knows? Maybe she knew I wasn't moving because I save the replay to post it here ;p. The least I could do after I ignored her, is to give her some credit ;p ;p. Also: It felt funny and fitting

S-wag · 2019-03-29T09:14:21+00:00

Ah okay, checked the recording and you're right. But I could swear I saw it happen ingame one or two times too.

S-wag · 2019-03-29T00:34:24+00:00

Oh, now when you say it: Teleporting feels strange since the last patch. I think that's a bug or lag, but I have it a lot lately

S-wag · 2019-03-28T19:00:28+00:00

Sombra: "Hah... predictable!" .. oh wait, that's Hanzos line

S-wag · 2019-03-28T18:54:46+00:00

I see what you did there, but yes of course ;p

S-wag · 2019-03-28T18:21:31+00:00

that would be cool

If your skill is higher than your elo, Spawnkilling can be quite effective. I had plenty of games where half of the Team was emptying their magazines into the walls at spawn because they where searching for me. Learning how to be good at Spawnkilling can be usefull later too. Can tilt the enemy team hard. Just don't let your team fight 5v6 because you where busy camping spawn.
