What are you downloading rushes from SSDs on to? For CF cards I've been using the NextoDi. Any similar portable hard rives with SSD slots? Thanks

We download to two small RAIDs, or ESATA drives...always two sets
Haven't tested this out yet, but intentions are to download to the HDD on a laptop (only one eSATA port) and then offload from the laptop back through that eSATA port onto a 2.5 in. HDD in an off-the-shelf dock.
For downloading on location we use a Macbook pro with thunderbolt running R3D Manager, a sonnet echo Echo ExpressCard/34 Thunderbolt Adapter https://secure1.sonnettech.com/produ...48838928b9df2cconnected to the REDMAG Station and two LaCie Little Big Disk Thunderbolt Drives http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?id=10549
Fastest portable solution we have found so far.
Forgot to mention we use a Caldigit express card to SATA for conntecting to the RED Station. http://www.caldigit.com/avdrive/Card_laptop.html
Thank you all. All information is greatly appreciated.
The New V series Nextos can copy off RedMags no problem. Red Station needs to be plugged in. Much cheaper/lighter and just works. You can buy two Nextos and copy to both (not ata once) or you can mirror the nexto to any USB2/Sata/Firewire 800 drive while you keep shooting. You do need power, but nothing a camping battery can't give you. Great for when you are literally in the field.
