HI Bill - Based on this and your other post, it sounds like the P70X served you well. Did you use the verified write feature with the SD cards? That seems to be the only sticking point for me now, and I'm not sure that I really need to use it.
I plant ot use my X's drive as a backup similar to what you used the Wolverine 40 gb for. (Drawing on your other post here.) The X's drive can't reliably read the 2 gig SD cards so I plan to just use it to copy the files from one portable device to the other. Error 19 is what I got with the 18 mAh batteries. Per the manual it means "cannot detect hard drive" - but I htink it kicks in when the power level is too low for the HD to properly power up. Thanks for the info - now I want to get out and do some heavy duty shooting to run the Compactdrive through its paces! - MCC Bill Lawlor wrote: > Marc, I just got back from a month in India using the PD70X(80) and a > Wolverine (40), the latter to back up the former.
