Hmm interesting.

I ended up purchasing this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MJ5CMKY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_WKaNCb3JNANSE

We'll see how it goes

We obviously had the same plan in mind. I almost did that exact setup.

Instead I got a USB C hub: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MJ5CMKY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_IMoNCbVSEVFTP

And I'm hoping I can just put my SD card in there and then plug in a SATA to USB and use an SSD for backup.

Were you using this setup for pictures/film while on vacation? Did you wipe the card every day? Any tips?
