Aaron shows you how to use an iPhone or iPad through a USB hub to copy an SD card to a HDD or SSD without a laptop or PC.
It is now possible to use only an iPhone to copy or backup an SD card to a HDD (hard disk drive) through a USB hub without using a laptop. This is huge for travelers, backpackers, adventurers, and filmmakers. Having all of your footage on a single SD card is scary. Losing or having the card fail can be catastrophic. Often it’s not possible to have a laptop while backpacking or traveling. Aaron shows how to use a powered USB hub to run access a portable hard drive using an iPhone Xs. You can also use this technique to copy from on SD card to another.
Aaron shows the process of using IOS 13’s File app for connecting, copying, back up, pasting, creating folders, navigation, and ejecting devices. This is great for photographers, videographers, drone operators, filmmakers, adventurers, travelers, and the like.
This technique works for SD, CF, Compact Flash, QXD, and any other card you can think of. You can even copy your USB mass storage camera/camcorder to a HDD/SDD using your iPhone or iPad.
*** UPDATE ***
I changed the Amazon USB cable link below. This may dramatically improve your file transfer speed. It appears the bottleneck is the Apple Lightning system.

Got the USB 3 adapter for iPhone 13 and used a Rugged Raid pro- has a built in sd card reader. It works like a charm! The only downside is that I do need power for the Lacie Rugged. Upside: I don't need to bring my laptop on a motorcycle trip AND less cords. I can even view the RAW files on my phone! WINNING!

@evilhamsters08 5 лет назад

Thank you for this. I was looking for a video on how this worked for iPhone specifically. BTW I don't know if this is something they've changed for iOS 13, but at 7:35 you don't have to scroll all the way to the bottom to tap and hold for the New Folder dialog. You can tap and hold in any blank space between folder icons to get the dialog. You can also keep scrolling to the top and that will eventually bring more buttons and one of them is a New Folder Button.

@ALinsdau 5 лет назад

I was having trouble getting the blank space click to work. I'm sure it's a Beta issue.

Does the usb hub itself need power or can the apple usb to lightning adapter with power also power an HDD?

This particular hub needs power to power the hard drive.

@NightKidBrandon 4 года назад

I read someone had success by plugging in their Mac 30W into the adapter directly and the HDD booted. I’m trying to find out how to do this portably. There are 30W portable chargers online. I want to power a hub and transfer SD to HDD from iPhone, but not sure if the adapter powers the hub as well. If so I can have a full portable work station, no wall power required.

I plan to use a 5T external HD to store all of my videos and projects when I am at home. And I plan to use a 1T external SD drive to dump footage off of my iphone while on a shoot. If I use a SD drive will my transfer speeds be faster then the HD drive while on a shoot. Your transfer speeds are mainly Bc of the read snd write speeds of your external HD and not Bc of the phone capabilities. Is that correct? I know iOS is limited to read and write. But the Samsung T5 or T7 would be better to dump to while on a shoot? Correct? My issue is while I’m on a shoot “using my iPhone” I run out of space.. So my plan is to have the external SD to dump my footage onto it while I’m on a shoot. And keep doing that every time I run out of space. And then once I’m home. I can edit off of my external SD. And then once my project is done. I can dump it onto my external HD while I’m home and not restricted by time. That way I can have projects and videos saved and And be able to delete and free up the space on my SD and IOS. Device. Any feedback on this workflow would be greatly appreciated. Also I have a power bank I use to charge my phone while on a shoot. I wonder if I need a usb hub that can be charged with my power bank.

Must be powered.

@aiofilms 4 года назад

Could it be because the card reader and/or the hub is running at USB 2.0 speed so that the transfer was slow?

@ALinsdau 4 года назад

It's actually the Apple Lightning connector. It's STILL USB 2.0. It's mindblowing for $1000 phones.

@mitchelllederer5095 2 года назад

@adriennetippet3112 4 года назад

I have an iPhone 6s, a 5T Western Digital HDD, and I use a PC with Windows10. Does the HDD have to have certain settings for the iphone files app and Windows file manager app to be able to read the videos? It's will be 4GB video clips I will be moving from SD to the external HDD. the iphone files app reads/sees the Apple SD dongle (using the UNI hub).

@ALinsdau 4 года назад

The drive can’t be APFS or NTFS formatted. That’s the best I have at the moment.

@jayratch 3 года назад

You mention the Sandisk SSD, but I tried plugging in that drive, even with a charger connected, and my iPad said it couldn’t use the drive because it drew too much power. But it could just be the hardware I am using - I have a cheap Lightning adapter that has both cars readers and USB in one device. Can you recommend a device that lets me simultaneously connect the Sandisk SSD and a micro SD card? I am running the Grand Canyon in January and will be recording the rapids with a VIRB 360. I would really like to be able to back-up as much of the footage as I can along the way, and expect to run out of space on both my iPad and my iPhone. But it looks like I’m definitely going to need a faster adapter.

@ALinsdau 3 года назад

You need to have power connected to the hub in order to power the SSD. That's the only way it works. Here's a link to my updated video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sXHuy62nbRw.html

Hi Aaron, to answer your question the apple Iphone X will only support USB 2 speeds, but the adapter will support USB 3 speeds only the apple IPAD 12 & 10.3 support USB 3.0 speeds. (Maybe the Iphone 11 supports USB 3 speeds?) That is 1 reason why it's so slow.

@ALinsdau 4 года назад

Apparently according to the data at the bottom of this page (fine print) only the iPad pro supports USB 3.0. www.apple.com/shop/product/MJYT2AM/A/lightning-to-sd-card-camera-reader?afid=p231%7Ccamref%3A11l3p&cid=AOS-US-AFF-PHG Classic.

@tobbe8287 4 года назад

Usb2 should be able to transfer this file with 60MB/s, so in less than 3 seconds. But iphone transfers it with 1MB/s which is just sad. I like the usb-c port on android which can do 600MB/s. Just get a 2.5" drive with usb-c and you can do this with just one cable, no powered usb hubs required.

That’s because lightning connection is still usb 2 speeds which is ridiculous, only the iPad pros have usb 3 transfer speeds with the 3rd gen having usb c port. Apple has got to add usb c to the next gen 5G iPhones at least the pro models. That’s what’s really missing from the iPhone 11s.
