I am involved in some documentation projects, where my digital equipment has to work for several days in an environment where I have absolutely no access to a external power source and due to weight concerns, I can bring only the most necessary stuff (And no, I can not shoot analog, but have a analog backup system with me, just in case).
I solved the battery problems for my Nikon D-SLRs but I have not yet a solution to store my (lots of) RAW files reliable in the field. What I am looking for is a 'Portable Storage' solution, an external USB2, 50GB+ HD, flash card copy device. I live in Tokyo, Japan so I have local shop access to a wide variety of devices like the "Tripper Pro", "Vosonic X-Drive", "NixVue", and a whole bunch of others. However, some of these devices have battery power only for 1,5h, which is way too less. I wonder if somebody in Prodig can recommend a reliable (read: containing a verify option) portable storage solution plus a power management solution for said device which enables me run it for a long period of time?
