Hi,

first I want to know if this is the right place to share this topic:

As Gearbox is gone I wrote a script to transform RaspberryPi into backup machine (SD into SSD) and I want to share it here

as many photographers do, I wanted to travel without a notebook iPad or any big box and also keep backups of my files so I thought of buying a gnarbox, but found the were almost out of business

so I wrote a script to transform a raspberry into a backup machine, you plug an SD (with it's adapter) and an SSD into the raspberry and control everything about the backup from an iPhone (connected by a wifi)

it you want to try it go to this link:

and please let me know how it goes for you

Could you provide some example transfer/copy data rates for say 1GB worth of files/folders between SD card to SSD?

I currently use an Android phone with USB3 hub which gets me about 36 MB/s. The Android UI makes navigating and selecting a folder easy but a selecting a range of files is difficult. I often have to tediously select one file at a time then copy and paste the selected files. How does your interface work with selecting and copying just a range of files?
I haven't tried a Raspberry Pi kit before.
