I used to carry lap top and external hard drive(s). No more. I shoot RAW on card 1, jpeg on card 2. I carry many 64gb cards, numbered, used in sequence to help keep track of blank vs. used. The jpeg files become my backup. Every day or two I download the jpegs to my iPad. Delete the bad ones, star the good ones. That stash of selected but unprocessed jpegs becomes my 2nd backup. And what I use on social media along the way. Back home I download the RAW files, throw away the jpeg files, delete the cards to be ready for the next occasion. stan
