Can I use a portable hard drive and USB wire as picture storage for my SLR camera instead memory cards?
I have a Digital SLR ( a Nikon D40x). I was looking for a portable hard drive for my laptop and thought of the idea to use it as photo storage as well. I have the wire that would be required to connect the camera to the hard drive. I found a good cheap portable hard drive called the Western Digital Passport 120GB External USB 2.0 Portable Hard Drive. Can anybody tell me if I can do this (and if so how) before i decide to buy the hard drive.
You’ll still need memory cards. And just a hard drive won’t do it. You need something with an operating system. I know Epson makes viewers, or, if you have an iPod, you can buy an attachment to upload pictures directly to it, which you can later sync with your computer.
