PCIe to ExpressCard 34/54 Bay (1-Slot Card Drive / Adapter) for Desktop Computer |
Thanks for the link Barry.

You are welcome. It has been awhile since I have used this to download since I use Nanoflash now and download with a USB reader from the CF cards. From what I can remember the Expresscard adaptor is 2-3 x as fast as the SBAC reader.
One thing you have to remember - you have to do the "scan for hardware changes" under device manager both when you remove a card and then when you reinsert the card. It is an annoyance but just takes a few seconds compared with a BIG time savings in downloading from the SxS cards. You mentioned before about dowloading to more than one hard drive - consider Shotput Pro - downloads up to 3 hard drives in the same time as one hard drive. I would say that you could download a 32 GB SxS card to two hard drives in under 15 minutes - of course then you wouldn't have the excuse for a "pint of Guiness" sooo......... |

LOL :) Thanks once again Barry. I'll check out Shotput Pro. |

I see you can copy one clip but how would you copy all clips in one go? |
It's not possible to copy all clips at once in the EX1, however it is possible in the new EX1-R, hopefully with a future firmware upgrade it will be possible for the EX1 and EX3 to copy all clips at once.
Apparently the future firmware upgrades will be user done. Paul. |
Thanks Paul.

Hi Mark, Any details.

This is one reason I love the SDHC workflow. It's a lot more flexible when transfering footage. Using an SDHC USB adapter is fast enough for me, in fact it's faster than connecting your camera via USB. I just got a 13" MBP and SDHC works perfectly with that without an adapter. If I was using SxS media I'd have to connect up the camera. To me the SBAC-US10 is useless since it's not buss powered. I'd rather use the camera so it can be battery powered.
I do believe you're right about ExpressCard being on the way out on laptops. The Memory Stick solution is great since it's a Sony supported alternative to SxS. Once it's available, I might switch to that. |
Thanks Brett, for your input. I'm starting to think along the lines of a laptop, one with an eSATA port as well, handy for copying to my eSATA external H.Drive.
I was looking at this... Acer Aspire 5739G Intel Core 2 Duo T6500 2.10GHz 15.6" LED Laptop |
