I save my photos on thumb drives. When I go on vacation I usually take my laptop with me, I have to check my business email, and check my memory card just about every night. I only save the ones I like. I delete the rest. Some I can delete right on my camera. Eyes closed, blurry, toes and walls, anthing that is really bad is gone immediately.
I have a card reader and it is easy to delete right away.
The thumb drives are great.
