I’m trying to find a good solution for both family photos and content creation and this is what we have so far.
Camera Workflow
- Take SD Card and import to NAS (USB Copy)
- I’m thinking now to use the SD Card in the FCpX projects as needed.
- Then once its done, take sd card dump into external harddrive
- then put sd into NAS use USB copy that copies then deletes?
Smartphone Workflow
And they all go within respective folders inside Synology Moments
- Drive –> Moments –> Photosync/SDCardDump
I don’t know if using USB Copy is best practice but I like the ability to set it and forget it.
