why did I get a "can't post bad information error" when trying to post the following in a reply
Another alternative which I use sometimes is to have an external USB drive with Card reader. I have a battery powered *w*d pass *port and all I have to do is put the card in the slot and the drive automatically back it up without needing a laptop. Nice device and pretty cheap. Mine is 4TB.
Apparently mentioning that well known drive brand and model triggers the Error.
