Comments about Sanho 120GB HyperDrive SPACE Portable Storage Device and Memory Card Reader:
I purchased this about 6 months ago for a trip to my daughters in San Francisco. I just returned from a 2 week trip photographing elk. I was eyeing the Hyperdrive for some time (the one without the lcd). I waited too long and it wasn't available so I got the Hyperdrive Color Space. I shoot 80% in RAW and this is very fast, reliable, exceptional battery life and takes some punishment. I found that using the guide, and it is just that a guide, things were pretty simple to figure out and I had no trouble with the devices operation. First time I used this things went perfect and have been since.

Having never used an item such as this before I found it fairly easy to navigate.
It was ideal for traveling as I could store all my images and clear my memory cards for more great shots. Light enough and didnt take up much room either. I was backpacking for some months and wish I had obtained this sooner. Wouldnt travel without it now.

Comments about Sanho 120GB HyperDrive SPACE Portable Storage Device and Memory Card Reader:
Have used it 3 times to download off a CF card and upload to computer. It was a quick download, uploading has 3 speeds, I used the slowest which verifies every byte transferred and takes a few minutes. User manual is very poor. I don't know how I get it to work other than pushing buttons until something happens. I need more time to work with it. Nice size and weight. Still using first battery charge.

This is my third try and this one is good. It takes 5min. for a 4gb CF and it verifies.My first try took 24 min to copy, the second try was 15 min. Neither was acceptable.
