Digital Storage Solutions On The Road; Options Galore For The Traveling Photographer by Jack Neubart
From the website: How can you make the most use out of that limited quantity of memory cards when on the road, especially on a long trip? The answer: a portable drive. When connected to a host computer via USB 2.0, all these devices are recognized as an external drive—but not immediately in some cases: it may require activation of a USB function on the device. Adding to the utility of many of these portable devices is a built-in card reader/writer that is immediately recognized as such by the computer as well. These drives seem to work equally well under the latest versions of Windows XP and Mac OS 10.4 (but confirm compatibility with older operating systems before buying the unit).
