I just need some good storage now, and then shell out the bucks for a
full featured device much later...
RS I'd recommend the PDX7 then, it's cheap, small, fast, has good battery life,
RS doubles as a AA charger, can handle a 100GB drive and verifies transfers.
Hi Rob,
thanks for the comment.

Fra,
Like several others here I chose a PD7X.
I went with a 40GB drive. Its powered by 4 AA batteries, has a built in
dual voltage battery recharger, and is very simple to operate.
To copy the memory card to the drive you insert the card,
place the power switch to the 'Card' position and press

I've not done any testing myself but one of the reviewers
states 'You could backup at least 30 GB of DATA without recharging the
battery.' Though I would guess it would be dependant upon
the initial state of your batteries, and the speed of the memory
card.
Hi, thanks for the suggestion, but I specifically asked for impression
of the OTG (On the go) USB enclosures... :-) *OTG means it can
suck files from any mass storage compatible USB camera or card

Hi,
The PD7X is screenless, but I wonder if a screen is really needed. It adds
size, weight, cost, drains batteries faster. Are we that unsure of the
technology involved in xferring a file from one storage medium to another?

Hi Frantisek,
after I got rid of ImageTank (usb1.1, 10GB HDD) I wanted something
faster with integrated battery and large drive. Two weeks ago I found
Apacer Share Steno CD211 at one online computer shop. It was cheap
(1700,- Sk + VAT) for device only - no disk. So I also bought 60GB
harddrive
Ahoj Peter,
kde jsi ten Steno nasel? Nemohl jsem ho najit nikde v CR ani SR, ani
EU, pouze americke online shopy. Presne tenhle a jeste podobny od
ByteCC me hodne zajimaly.
For the others:
Yes, that's one of the units I was interested in. Please, after you
know some more from usage, post it.

Hi Frantisek,
I tested the speed with CF reader. The details are:
- Apacer Photo Steno II - 2GB CF card
- iTec Pocket Reader USB 2
- 150 PEF files - 2039MBytes
- total transfer time: 11 minutes, 50 seconds
The Steno was powered from DC adapter. The bad thing is that there is
no progress
That's funny.
Someone not too happy with their PD7X apparently.

Seems that Heard Park Group has stooped way below anything reasonable.
For the record my CompactDrive PD6a is working wonderfully and I am
very happy with it.

posted with photos from the trip and also field notes with the Steno -

Good light!
